Ecosia is the search engine that plants trees. Get on Ecosia and be climate active every day: www.ecosia.org/
In this short documentary on regenerative agriculture, we go through the basic arguments of how regenerative agriculture curbs climate change.
Regenerative agriculture has no rules. Instead, there are general principles and practices of regenerative agriculture, all of which aim to disturb the soil as little as possible and keep it covered at all times. Combined with reforestation, regenerative agriculture could even re-capture most of the CO2 emissions out of the air again. That is why at Ecosia we have launched a competition fund for farmers in Europe to support them in their switch to regenerative practices.
From agroforestry, silvopasture, permaculture or intercropping - the practices of regenerative agriculture are varied and which ones or which set of those you apply will depend on the climate, the quality of your soil and trial and errors on any particular farm.

For a good European example check out Richard perkins. For veggie production check out "the lean farm" (this book is a must for any kind of farmer) charles Dowding is a good resource for no dig gardening. Jean martin fortier is doing amazing work with market gardening.

That is far harder than it sounds. It is nearly impossible to get food at the same rates we do now without using pesticides. If we decide to use hydroponics instead of land for farming, we would supply a lot less people. Pesticides are very crucial for the foods we eat. And nearly impossible to get rid of. The best solution for pesticides is to use it sparingly so it only affects the things we want it to. Or we get better ways of filtering out our waterways before dumping it as run off so only clean water is dumped.

Going vegan is the single most effective way for each of us to minimize our environmental footprint. "According to the most comprehensive analysis of farming’s impact on the planet, plant-based food is most effective at combatting climate change. Oxford University researcher Joseph Poore, who led the study, said adopting a vegan diet is “the single biggest way to reduce your impact on planet Earth.” “A vegan diet is probably the single biggest way to reduce your impact on planet Earth, not just greenhouse gases, but global acidification, eutrophication, land use and water use.”. -Joseph Poore, Environmental Science Researcher, University of Oxford.

My whole life my family has been composting, and in the last few years we took it up a few levels by adding worm farms (two for food scraps, one for pet poo) to the house, and then bokashi so we can also now compost meat and dairy products. We cause enough food waste to contribute to all three forms of composting food. We've had an orange, a lime and a lemon tree for as long as I can remember, we started growing a bay leaf tree a few years ago and now have more bay leaves then we'll know what to do with, and we've started growing our own salads this year - half of the planting box was filled with compost when we first planted it. We're doing what we can, every day, with every pile of food scraps that will go back into the earth that is our garden rather than to the bin. This is an Australian website but if people look I'm sure they'll be able to find products like this easily in their own countries: compostrevolution.com.au/products/

Hey Ecosia, and anyone else who discusses and educates about sustainable, regenerative agriculture, be clear with your language! In this video, when you talk about 'scaling', you talk about making regenerative farming practices more "efficient". Please be sure you are saying what you mean here! Did you mean resource efficient? Labour efficient? I realise these are not unrelated concepts but they are not the same thing! And a lot of industrial agriculture hype is built off of claims of maximum 'efficiency' but what they are talking about is labour efficiency and pretty much no other kind. Therefore, this is incredibly important to be clear about. Labour efficiency, growing a given amount of food with fewer people (or growing more food with the same amount of people involved), is what is currently prioritised and it is definitely to detriment, so when we talk about benefits of regenerative agriculture, making practices many times more labour efficient reinforces the value set and worldview and way of living that has set us into this kind of mass destruction. However, making agriculture more land efficient means growing a given amount of food on less land (or growing more food on the same amount of land), and this is just what we need now. Resource efficiency more generally is about growing more food with the same amount of total resources, or growing the same amount using fewer total resources. It depends on your definition, but resource efficiency includes all inputs: soil, water, nutrients, seeds, light, and time and energy spent. I'm not an expert here, but I am an English speaker who just wants to get people thinking about how to be clear with what exactly they say, especially about something so important. Communication is crucial for transforming our collective systems of living from destructive and unjust to fair and healthy. Thank you Ecosia!

soilsforlife.org.au/ many case studies and info Charlie Arnott is as Aussie framer and does podcasts, has KZfaq channel www.regrarians.org/ Is an Aussie organisation... But get acquainted with Holistic Management (developed by Allan Savory) - it is a system of observation - the principles are the same the world over - each practitioner has to work with their own land and with their own desired regenerative outcomes to understand what their land can do and when. Visit the Savory Institute ... The Holistic Management book by Allan Savory is a mine of information - from how to look at land to what one might do to begin restoring it, to actual management systems...(it is about 500 jam packed pages!) you can also do online courses (not free) at Savory Institute. Check out farmers like Gabe Brown (he is in the USA) - he is so generous in his knowledge - many videos of him speaking... he talks often about starting out... And Yes 'Call of the Reed Warbler' by Australian Farmer Charles Massy it is wonderful. Armidale University has Regenerative agriculture course... I believe Charles Massey contributed to the course structure.

Thank you ecosia! To anyone who sees this, please like, comment, and share this video to the world. >< We need everyone to see this! (PS: I love the fact that you used examples from all over the world to illustrate your point, I appreciated that you included Spanish, German and French people too)

I'm always sad when people talk about scaling up. Scale is the problem. We don't need a giant Monsanto style permaculture company. We need more people growing food.

You are so right with this video. I live in Thailand and have 5.44 hectares of intensively managed farmland. I am currently converting everything to regenerative agriculture. I see this as our only chance to earn enough money for living from this farmland and to get out of the cycle of intensive agriculture. I'll do my part for a better future for us and next generations on this planet.

I love Ecosia! I tell people about your search engine whenever possible! Thanks for all you do! I don't purchase or consume any animal based products and shop locally to help curb climate change! I wish more people were willing to build new habits to help save our planet.

Remember to fix compaction with a broadfork or a deep subsoiler, closest to a no-till approach

Getting into the habit of only using Ecosia for all my searches I have planted almost 100 trees!!! Also my newly bought 1/2 acre of organic fruit trees will be regenerative.l for the soil when I figure out how to do this. Thank you Ecosia - I promote you where I can. 💚🦙

I agree that there are different and maybe better ways.I'm in my 2nd year with no till and cover crops myself.My main concern with a lot of this is it is very labor intensive and now days people will not work as laborers on farms and unless the farmer gets a premium price for his crops he cant afford to pay anyway thereby causing food shortages or extremely high priced food.I'm all on for regenerative ag but there are issues that need to be adressed

I'm becoming convinced that regenerative farming is our single best hope to save our future. You make the food and then the food makes you.

As a gardener this hole concept is scaled up from what we do in our gardens, dig as little as possible, mulch every year ect. The only thing against this is the need for more labour, which in the UK the bulk of people don't want to work outside or get wet, so we need to change the opinions of the masses, then this could work. 👍

We are an ngo in siargao that opened local vegetables market and a second one really soon.. we gives guidelines to the farmers that want to use our platform to sell their produces .. in the guidelines we have some basic knowledge steering towards regenerative or permaculture farming and more.. so far we have a network of more than a 100 growers.. our problem is that we are not farmers and don’t know what we are doing and we seriously need help because the farmers are really interested and we do feel our limits. If you know people that can help us please look us up!

This is something that can be and needs to be practiced on any scale! We can regenerate our backyards and home gardens just as much as the pastures and fields. One of the most resource intensive and widespread crops is lawn grass after all!

@zephyrschiesser5408 3 жыл бұрын

Thank you so much for this amazing video!! I have even noticed this in my own backyard. One side is covered in grass and one is bare dirt. The soil under the grass is so rich after years and years of having stuff grow in it, and the bare dirt is almost desert like. Glad to know I wasn't just crazy!!

Syntropic Farming is the most efficient method for regenerating soil whilst growing great amounts of food. I have seen miracles on wastelands using this amazing technique. There is so much wasteland created by farming around the world not even used by poor farmers because it is too hard to make it produce again. However with Syntropic farming using a highly diverse perennial plant group and certain management techniques with simple tools can turn them into production without other inputs.

@bazoo513 3 жыл бұрын

Excellent video. One problem of regenerative farming is increase labor requirements, but, as you mentioned, there are ways around it. Good point on cereal production taking up most subsidy money while producing the least "bang for the buck" in terms of nutritional value of the crops (it has gone to absurd levels with US corn subsidies). However, people do want their bread, and it would be nice to devote a separate video to cereal production. I we _do_ want "high tech, high yield" production, go the Dutch way, with hydroponic growing in greenhouses - it is as far from the methods you champion as possible, but at least it uses a tiny proportion of land. The EU has a huge tool at its disposal to promote the change in agricultural practices: Common Agricultural Policy. Redefining the way subsidies are distributed can make all the difference needed. I think I am going to write to my MEP who specializes in this. Thanks!

This channel is actually proving to be a great resource for practicing polyglots who like learning about regenerative agriculture. I've been wishing there was some combined-language content, and this is fulfilling that rare niche.
