How Do Fungi Keep the Planet Healthy? Evolutionary biologist Toby Kiers explains how fungal networks in soil trade nutrients with plants, help keep carbon underground, and strike bargains without having a brain. https://www.quantamagazine.org/how-do-fungi-keep-the-planet-healthy-20261015/ #Fungi #Environment #Climate #Science #QuantaMagazine #JoyOfY #ClimateDiary #ClimateCrisis #Nature #FungiFriday
