Ag Climate Heroes
Finding Inspiration in Every Turn
Across the Golden State, California farmers and ranchers are increasingly recognizing their responsibility to contribute to a healthier environment and addressing climate change.
This portfolio of profiles compiled by American Farmland Trust showcases outstanding real-world examples of environmental stewardship by California farmers and ranchers. These are stories of farmers, ranchers and families that have undertaken significant efforts to increase conservation practices within their operations.
One of the primary contributions we can make is recognizing farmers, ranchers and other agriculturalists who are making a positive contribution to reducing GHG emissions, sequestering carbon and providing other ecosystem services and benefits to the environment. Many California farmers and ranchers are doing so and are recognized in the Climate Heroes tab. If you know of other Ag Climate Heroes, please let us know, so that we can recognize their contributions by adding them to the list, and hopefully inspire others to action.
