The Rodale Institute describes how we could sequester more than 100% of current annual CO2 emissions with a switch to widely available and inexpensive organic management practices, namely, regenerative organic agriculture.

This white paper analyzes soil destruction as a major cause of climate change, provides examples of ecosystem and soil regeneration, assesses the current situation in the European Union and provides examples of initiatives that would help and support the application of regenerative policies.

Land makes up a quarter of Earth’s surface, and its soil and plants hold three times as much carbon as the atmosphere. More than 30 percent of all greenhouse gas emissions arise from the land use sector. Thus, no strategy for mitigating global climate change can be complete or successful...

A growing number of climate, food, environment, health and justice advocates are embracing and promoting a world-changing concept: regeneration.  

A global shift towards an agriculture that builds up organic matter in the soil would also put us on a path to removing some of the other major sources of greenhouse gas emissions from the food system.

"Ce rapport rend compte de l’activité autour du projet agro-écologique de 2016 et présente les perspectives de l’année 2017.
