This webinar from The Climate Center will explain how climate-smart agricultural practices can sequester significant amounts of carbon while also improving soil health, increasing water retention in the soil, and making the land more drought-resilient and productive. They’ll also talk about what investments are necessary to support farmers in changing to these practices.
Speakers:
Patricia Hickey, Managing Director at the Carbon Cycle Institute
Albert Straus, founder and CEO of Straus Family Creamery
Baani Behniwal, The Climate Center’s Natural Sequestration Initiative Manager.
While adopting these practices is essential and important, beware of suggestions that they can be financed by selling “credits’ to emitters of greenhouse gases. Such carbon market schemes do not reduce the rate of GHG emissions and serve as an excuse for polluters to continue climate destruction.
