“We’re learning more and we really want to go beyond,” said Malin as she stood near rows of tangled green vines and yellowish pumpkins on a recent September morning. “How can we build back some things we may have already lost in some previous practices?”
Arohi Sharma, deputy director of the regenerative agriculture program at the Natural Resources Defense Council, an environmental group, said food companies see the extreme temperatures and drought that result from climate change and know they must act. The agricultural sector is responsible for 11% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, nearly as much as residential and commercial buildings, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.
No one keeps track of the number of U.S. farms using regenerative farming techniques. Like organic farming — which makes up less than 1% of U.S. farmland — regenerative acres are still vastly outnumbered by conventional ones. “Everybody’s getting into the environmental act, and you’ve just got to change,” Sahs said. “If you can’t change, then you won’t be around very long.”
I have a feeling nobody wonders about the carbon footprint when they're eating their pumpkin pie, this year as last year they'll probably wondering why they're paying out the nose for everything thanks to leftists in Congress
I’m burning tires to make up for it..
Bro, the calendar just flipped over to October. Chill.
Please name those companies please for a fact check.
Pumpkin pie and climate change make it stop
Omg who cares. I’m gonna go drive around and needlessly burn gas now.
My god you people are insufferable
Everything we do now is laced with guilt.
Mine will. Because, I currently live on a farm that grows pumpkins. 😎
Unreal
Carbon isn’t a driver of climate! Eat your pie guilt free
