Carbon Capture Farming

verb: the process of capturing, or 'trapping,' carbon dioxide into the soil by planting certain species of wetlands-type plants.  The plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and as they die and decompose the carbon is incorporated into soil biomass (creating new peat soil).  Farmers in deltas and wetlands areas who practice carbon capture farming instead of planting row crops are often eligible for tradeable carbon credits.
