In March 2013, 40 leading experts from across the world gathered at a workshop, hosted by the European Commission, Directorate General Joint Research Centre, Italy, to discuss these issues as part of a Rapid Assessment Process (RAP) project commissioned by SCOPE (Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment). This collaboration led to the publication of the SCOPE Series Volume 71 ‘Soil Carbon: Science, Management and Policy for Multiple Benefits’; which brings together the essential scientific evidence and policy opportunities regarding the global importance of soil carbon. The book is a timely contribution that supports the 5 pillars of the Global Soil Partnership (www.fao.org/globalsoilpartnership/en/) and the related activities of the 2015 International Year of Soils (www.fao.org/soils-2015/en/). Here we present some of the key messages to come out of the project.
