Swedish old-growth forests store 83 percent more carbon than managed forests, according to a new study from Lund University. The difference is substantially larger than previous estimates and is mainly due to large carbon stocks in the soil. The study, published in the scientific journal Science, is the most comprehensive mapping of how much carbon is stored in Swedish old-growth forests to date.

De flesta säger ja direkt – självklart vill jag försöka rädda livet på mitt syskon. Men att donera stamceller är så mycket mer än en livräddande insats och medicinsk överföring av nödvändiga celler. Den känslomässiga insatsen är ofta hög, och donationen kan väcka stora existentiel
