A World of Cobenefits: Solving the Global Nitrogen Challenge

A World of Cobenefits: Solving the Global Nitrogen Challenge

Abstract Nitrogen is a critical component of the economy, food security, and planetary health. Many of the world's sustainability targets hinge on global nitrogen solutions, which, in turn, contribute lasting benefits for (i) world hunger; (ii) soil, air, and water quality; (iii) climate change...
