Pollution in general, and global warming in particular, are a huge concern for everyone. But farmers are right at the center of it all. More than almost any other industry, farming depends on a predictable climate. The entire infrastructure is designed around the needs of specific crops. Pollution can upset that balance, and some agricultural methods can even make things worse.
However, there’s also an upside to all of these negatives. There are tools out there to help push back against that trend. Methods through which you can reduce carbon emissions and help fight against climate change. What’s more, thanks to carbon credits, this can provide direct economic benefit. Companies whose practices create carbon emissions can essentially purchase an offset through carbon credits on the market. It’s essentially a codified way to track and promote solutions to climate change while still recognizing that some practices are inherently damaging. Increased good is promoted in some areas where change is possible to offset the bad in areas where it isn’t.
In practical terms, the agricultural sector can use carbon solutions like mycorrhizal fungi inoculants to create more efficient carbon processing. This is a boon to everyone, as every invested party benefits. Farmers receive carbon credits and see improved crop growth due to optimized carbon utilization. The larger surrounding culture benefits from these changes offsetting negatives from other industries. And the planet as a whole is left better as a result. You can start implementing these new methodologies through Groundwork BioAg.
