Somehow they are going to twist this into climate change or something and how trees don't do a good job at carbon capture so we need to make carbon capture plants (that don't work) but are great for stealing government money.

From the post:
>Forests, grasslands, and other natural areas around the world have access to about a quarter less nitrogen than previously estimated, according to a new study published in Nature. Coauthored by Sarah Batterman, an ecologist at the Cary Institute of Ecosystem Studies, the findings have implications for natural climate solutions, as nitrogen is essential to plant growth and thus the removal of carbon from the atmosphere. "Outside of some tropical forests and drylands, we found that the amount of nitrogen available to plants in many natural areas has been overestimated," said Batterman. "Our results suggest there are nitrogen constraints on the terrestrial carbon sink in a range of biomes, including prairies and temperate forests."
