Regenerative Agriculture is the type of farming and grazing practice that, among other benefits, reverses climate change by rebuilding soil organic matter and restoring the degraded soil biodiversity which results in both carbon drawdown and improving the water cycle. The loss of the world's fertile soil and biodiversity, along with the loss of indigenous seeds and knowledge, poses a mortal threat to future survival.

According to soil scientists, at the current rates of soil destruction (i.e. decarbonization, erosion, desertification, chemical pollution), within 50 years the planet will not only suffer serious damage to public health due to a qualitatively degraded food supply characterized by diminished nutrition and loss of important trace minerals, but we will no longer have enough arable topsoil to feed ourselves. Without protecting and regenerating the soil on our 4 billion acres of cultivated farmland, 8 billion acres of pastureland, and 10 billion acres of forest land, it will be impossible to feed the world.
