Earth's carbon cycle worked in quiet harmony for millennia until human hands began turning its delicate balance into a runaway train. Cycles of Carbon - Nature's Balancing Act isn't just another climate book; it's a conversation between laboratories, living rooms, spreadsheets, and sacred texts. Here, the cold calculus of carbon markets meets the wisdom of mangrove forests, where engineers' blueprints intersect with imams' sermons about stewardship. This is where we discover that saving our planet requires both silicon chips and soul, and that effective climate action speaks as many languages as the people implementing it. With one foot in peer-reviewed research and the other in muddy field sites, this book doesn't just diagnose our crisis, it hands you a toolkit forged from unexpected alliances between science, faith, policy and innovation. Whether you're drafting legislation or planting trees in your community, these pages will change how you see your role in Earth's great rebalancing act. The carbon solutions we need are already here, scattered across disciplines and traditions, waiting to be connected. This book builds those bridges.
