Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Torvmossen - vår räddare undan klimathotet? Att vår jord just nu genomgår en dramatisk klimatförändring har knappast kunnat undgå någon. Förbränning av fossila bränslen tillsammans med en rad andra mänskliga aktiviteter har ökat koncentrationen av koldioxid, CO2, i atmosfären med ungefär 36% sedan början av 1700-talet. Denna ökning anses vara en viktig orsak tiDuring the last century the carbon dioxide, CO2, concentration in our atmosphere has increased because of anthropogenic emissions, mainly from fossil fuel burning.
