Phys.org reports the following. ENC is republishing it as an attributed briefing, not as independently confirmed fact. If this item is false or incomplete, the responsibility sits with Phys.org, which released it. Open ecosystems—nonforested landscapes such as grasslands, shrublands and savannas—can store vast amounts of carbon while supporting water supply, biodiversity and other ecosystem services. Yet the potential of open ecosystems to serve as natural climate solutions remains ignored by policies that privilege forests. So reports a team of researchers in a policy brief published today in PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET. Original link: https://phys.org/news/2026-10-massive-carbon-stocks-grasslands-climate.html
