🌾 How Klim works with #mills We work with the farmers who supply mills: farmers use our platform to implement #regenerativeagriculture, and receive financial support from the mills for these efforts. The benefits for mills: 🌏 reduction of greenhouse gas emissions 🔍 transparent farms emissions management 🌿 secure yields in the face of unpredictable weather due to climate change 🚜 decreased dependence on expensive inputs such as fertilizer These are results that mills can expect from a project with Klim after a period of five years and working with approximately 300 farmers who are integrating various regenerative measures:

Climate change has become a major concern in recent years, with agriculture being a significant contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, particularly methane. Methane is produced by livestock during enteric fermentation and from manure management, and it is a potent greenhouse gas that has a significant impact on global warming. As the demand for food continues to rise, the agricultural sector must find sustainable ways to reduce methane production. This could be achieved through implementing more efficient farming practices, such as improved feed formulations for livestock, better manure management, and increasing the use of renewable energy sources on farms. By addressing methane production in agriculture, we can work towards mitigating the impacts of climate change and creating a more sustainable future for food production. #emissions #greenhouseemissions Amanubo Amos Nyombi Morris Vanessa Nakate

Quite insightful report by IPES-Food demonstrating that agriculture need to embrace renewable energy for a sustainable future. Regenerative agriculture and agroecology are key at promoting soil health, reducing carbon emissions and enhancing biodiversity. With solar and wind power, farmers are greening their practice!
A new report finds that food systems account for at least 15%❗ of all #fossilfuels burned globally. Shifting away from fossil fuel dependency towards renewable energy and regenerative and #agroecological farming would not only protect our planet, but make food more affordable, enhance food security, create jobs, improve health, and help tackle hunger. We must transform #FoodSystems to prevent catastrophic climate breakdown.

Agriculture has the potential to be a crucial carbon sink, altering our climate-change trajectory. This shift can help us achieve the dual goals of mitigating climate change and improving soil health. #climatesmartagriculture #legumes https://lnkd.in/eqNM9Wp6

The Financial Times recently called into question the climate benefits of soil carbon sequestration. The premise of the article is true: soil carbon removals are complex. But what climate mitigation tactic isn't? And does complexity mean we shouldn't do it? We believe the #agriculture and #climate industries are smarter than that. At Regrow, we know soil carbon sequestration has significant potential, not only in climate mitigation but in building #biodiversity and enhancing our water supply. In fact, #SOC is already making a traceable impact on our #foodsystem. And we have the science to show for it. ⬇️ Learn more in our response to Financial Times ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/ghWMQwBA #AgricultureResilience #ClimateAction #FutureofFood #sustainability

Working at the intersection of agriculture, climate change, and extreme poverty to help achieve a more sustainable world.
Our response to recent criticisms of soil carbon’s role in climate adaptation. But I want to highlight this post for another reason. I have always been uncomfortable with the norms in corporate communications where the comms team rarely gets acknowledgement of their contributions to company thought leadership (looking at you, C-Suite). My comms colleagues would always explain to me that this is just how corporate communications works, but the sound of their voices indicated they wished it weren’t this way. When I came to Regrow I wanted to change this, at least in our world. I made my case to leadership and Anastasia Volkova, PhD said we would work this out. Now we have published our first content where my wonderful comms colleague Elleni Paulson is properly recognized for her work. Her partnership makes my words and ideas better and the contributions of our communications team is critical to our message of building a resilient agriculture system. I hope more of us can normalize giving credit where it is due. #soilcarbon #resilience #agriculture #climatechange #communications #teamwork

Carbon absorption and sequestration play a vital role in combating climate change. Algae emerges as a superior option to traditional oil crops like Soybeans, Palm Oil, and Canola for several reasons: - Algae excels at absorbing CO₂, sequestering up to 2.7 kg per kg of dry algae. It thrives in non-arable land, using saltwater or wastewater, and offers a positive environmental impact when grown with waste CO₂ and wastewater. - Traditional Oil Crops are less efficient than algae, needing arable land and freshwater, contributing to deforestation and habitat destruction. Their #environmental impact ranges from soil erosion to critical issues like #deforestation and #biodiversity loss. Embracing algae could revolutionize sustainable oil production and carbon sequestration, given its efficiency, reduced land competition, and use of non-traditional water sources. https://lnkd.in/eFuamvWE #GreenEnergy #AlgaeFuel #SustainableFuture #EcoFriendly #Innovation #RenewableEnergy #CleanTech #ClimateChange #CarbonSequestration #SustainableEnergy

In this week's Newsletter: Mapping the Landscape of Public Attitudes Towards Low-Carbon Heating Technologies Authors: William Smith, Nick Pidgeon, Christina Demski & Sarah Becker This report presents findings from a survey of over 2,000 respondents regarding their views on the future of low-carbon #heating. Participants were asked about their awareness of, and support for different technologies, trust in institutional actors, and views on different policy options. The Meat and Dairy Industry is Not ‘Climate Neutral’, Despite Some Eye-Catching Claims Caspar Donnison Recent studies claim meat and #dairy can be 'climate neutral' with minimal methane reduction. This blog argues that this misleads by using metrics that focus on less additional warming, not total #emissions. It warns this is greenwashing, as livestock still majorly contribute to #greenhouse gasses. Plymouth Marine Lab Survey Just a week left to share your views in the Plymouth #Marine Lab survey on the impacts of offshore #windfarms on commercial fishing in the UK. This is your chance to shape policy to maximise benefits for people, the economy, and the environment. Plus #jobs, #funding and #events bit.ly/48ZRKqA

You might be surprised to learn that the #MethaneEmissions from the food and agriculture sector (40%) are more than that of the energy—fossil fuel—sector (35%). Yes, the methane produced by livestock (32%) is more than the methane produced from oil and gas (23%). That is an assuring piece of information for vegans, as eating less meat and dairy products can drastically reduce methane emissions. However, rice cultivation also emits enormous amounts of methane (8%), comparable to the methane emissions from coal (12%). Organic waste (landfills and wastewater) is the third most important contributor to human-caused methane production, reiterating the significant importance of reducing #FoodConsumption and waste...

Did you know that agriculture accounted for 12% of total GHG emissions and 16% of total air pollutant emissions in the EU in 2021? At dsm-firmenich, we are committed to addressing these environmental challenges through innovative solutions. In agriculture, methane and nitrous oxide are the dominant pollutants, while ammonia stands out among air pollutants. These emissions contribute to environmental issues such as acidification, nitrification, and eutrophication, as well as public health impacts. Read this Feed Talks article by Dr. Ildikó Edit Tikász, Edina Varga and Dr. Richárd Márkus and learn how to effectively tackle air pollution and climate change: https://bit.ly/3xrijI0 Stay tuned for our upcoming article on EU regulations for reducing and reporting on air pollutants and GHG emissions, as well as our innovative tool Sustell™ designed specifically for livestock farms. #WeBringProgressToLife #Sustainability #SustainableFarming #Sustell
