I would like to see the federal government acknowledge the potential for biosequestration on agricultural lands, and support farmers in their efforts to sequester more carbon on agricultural soils.
This aligns very nicely with some of the work that came out of the Paris climate accord. The French initiated a program called “4 per 1000”, which says that if agricultural soils could sequester an additional 0.4% of carbon each year, we would have no further need to address other strategies. I would like to see federal government support for that.
