evolution over sufficiently long time spans is indistinguishable from magic.
inspired by the microorganisms (and also macroorganisms in symbiotic relationship, e.g., modern termites) who took 60 million years to evolve a way to digest wood, during which time -- the Carboniferous period -- dead trees did not decay but instead piled up and up.
biochar is proposed as a method of carbon sequestration: no current soil microorganisms can digest elemental carbon. but for how long?
