Ask someone what the best way to fight climate change in the future will be and they might mention smog-eating buildings, or burying large amounts of captured greenhouse gases. A new study from Oxford University says that planting trees, and improving soil conditions are actually the best ways to fight climate change.

Even though Earth day isn’t for a few more months, any day is a good day to plant a tree.
