  • End industrialized agriculture methods, including monocropping, reliance on synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, and the use of confined animal operations, all of which are high-order contributors to atmospheric greenhouse gases.

  • Convert our food producing systems to small-scale organic, regenerative agriculture (agroecology) systems to restore soil health, sequester carbon, foster biodiversity, discourage the currently unsustainable level of meat consumption, and secure robust ecosystem services for a sustainable future.

  • Replace subsidization of industrially produced agricultural products with support for small producers employing organic, regenerative agricultural methods.

    Localize food distribution systems to minimize waste, build rural communities, and eliminate reliance on fossil fuels.
