Can Soil Carbon Credits Really Help Save the Planet?
What if the key to fighting climate change was right under our feet? In this episode of GreenShift, host Darin Graham visits a fourth-generation farmer in the English Fens who’s turning healthy soil into a climate solution. Working with Danish startup Agreena, Thomas Gent has adopted regenerative agriculture practices that store carbon underground — and turn those efforts into tradable soil carbon credits.
We explore how these credits are verified, why big brands like Radisson Hotels and Ryanair are buying them, and what makes soil carbon both promising and controversial.
Are these credits truly removing carbon, or just shifting it around on paper? Gent explains how regenerative farming builds resilience, cuts emissions, and could make agriculture part of the climate solution — if done right.
