CO2 release from soil
The New Scientist has an article about carbon loss from the soil. Increasing amounts of CO2 have apparently been released into the atmosphere (through faster decomposition of organic matter as a result of higher temperatures) cancelling out reductions in industrial emissions. Though the figures are for England and Wales, there is evidence that the same thing is happening elsewhere.
