Utilizing Regenerative Agriculture (RA) best practices to regenerate healthy soils can store carbon in the ground through plant photosynthesis at a rate of twenty tons of CO2 per hectare (2.5 acres) per year. Decades of field tests performed by Dr. Elaine Ingham and Dr. David Johnson have verified these results. Watch Soil Carbon Sequestration Video to see how this works. If all farmers and ranchers worldwide practiced RA, we could literally reach carbon draw down within 10 years.
Furthermore, per a recent Regeneration International article, the deployment of a small percentage (5-10%) of RA practices over total world croplands, rangelands and forestlands will draw down 45.12 gigatons of CO2 and cancel out all the current CO2 Greenhouse Gasses (43 Gigatons) emitted in our atmosphere. We must use Nature’s proven solutions to re-balance CO2 greenhouse gas emissions at pre-industrial levels (less than 350 ppm) and stop global warming to save our planet from even worse extreme weather events. Take action now and tell your legislators that Regenerative Agriculture can help fight climate change!
