Why? […]

New analysis of EPA data highlights agricultural emissions reductions and the importance of developing new research to capture more carbon in cropland.
Despite the fact that agriculture and forestry are a net carbon sink, we should use practices that reduce emissions and sink carbon back into the Earth.
