Engaging Agriculture as a Climate Solution

[Carbon Cycle Institute @InstCycle]

Read Carbon Cycle's "2022 Year in Review." Thank you to our partners, supporters, and allies for continuing to engage agriculture as a climate change solution!

California's ongoing drought is creating a historic crisis for small, family-owned dairy farms. We invite you to sign this petition to USDA Secretary Vilsack to get state or federal funding to help #saveorganicdairyfarms in the Western U.S.

#CarbonFarming in the news! Read the article from @NorthBayNews about how @GoldRidgeR_C_D & @SonomaRCD are supporting strategies to implement carbon farming practices in the area.

COP27 is in full swing and CCI’s Associate Director of Training & Education, Lynette Niebrugge, will be participating. What is #COP27 and why is CCI paying attention? Learn more below stay tuned for updates from CCI and its partners at the international climate conference.

[Carbon Cycle Institute @InstCycle]

CCI is joining 80+ climate and environmental justice orgs in calling on @CAGovernor and @AirResources to make sure California's 20-year climate blueprint does not rely on investment in carbon capture on fossil fuel infrastructure. Read more: https://t.co/vcUFKKEhIc

How do we understand the role of #agriculture in #climatechange? Listen to Dr. Jeff Creque explain this connection and the fundamental process by which carbon sequestration occurs. Watch the video here:

Our best tool for sequestering carbon is to recarbonize our natural and working lands. Last year, @FAO Global Soil Partnership published a series of insightful manuals on decarbonizing soils around the world.

[Carbon Cycle Institute @InstCycle]

Various sustainable soil management practices are supported by case studies that have been shown with quantitative data to positively affect SOC stocks and successful experiences of SOC sequestration in practical field applications.

[Carbon Cycle Institute @InstCycle]

Improved grazing can realize this potential and provide a low-cost and high-carbon-gain option for natural climate solutions.

[Carbon Cycle Institute @InstCycle]

Grasslands can act as an important carbon sink. A new paper by Bai and Cotrufo in @ScienceMagazine estimates the potential for global grasslands to sequester 3.4 to 10.1 billion metric tons of CO2 per year.

Thank you to our sponsors and partners for championing this work and ensuring that our natural and working lands sector is a critical pillar in our state’s climate portfolio.

[Carbon Cycle Institute @InstCycle]

It’s a great week for agricultural climate solutions in California! Yesterday @CAgovernor @GavinNewsom signed into law AB 1757, requiring the California Natural Resources Agency and Air Resources Board to establish ambitious targets for sequestration on natural and working lands

[Carbon Cycle Institute @InstCycle]

AB 1757 will catalyze natural carbon sequestration in #CA and its many co-benefits by establishing an expert committee of farmers, researchers, and tribal and environmental justice representatives to advise on modeling & implementation scenarios and the strategies to achieve them
