Groundsman. Focus - soil health, biodiversity, water management and carbon
Delighted to share the incredible impact of healthy soil at our breathtaking site of special interest! As a groundsman, I'm deeply committed to preserving soil health and mitigating carbon emissions.
Did you happen to know? Healthy soil acts as a natural carbon sink, transforming harmful carbon dioxide (CO2e) into beneficial carbon through photosynthesis. This process enriches soil with essential minerals and fosters a thriving ecosystem of microorganisms vital to our well-being.
We've embarked on a mission to safeguard soil health at our stunning race course, overlooking panoramic views that captivate the soul. Through our dedication to the Pillars of Soil Health, we're striving to boost soil carbon levels by 1% annually, removing a remarkable 7,700 tonnes of CO2e from the atmosphere.
Nature's ingenious design ensures soil equilibrium, and upholding this balance is our privilege. With every management decision, we prioritize soil health, ensuring that our actions positively contribute to preserving the vitality of what could be deemed the world's most magnificent race course.
Join us in celebrating the power of healthy soil to combat climate change and preserve our natural wonders for generations to come! https://jerseyraceclub.com
