From the Ground Up Ep. 313: Climate, Farming, the NFU and SARM, with Darrin Qualman | 2024.04.03

Following the passing of a muddled and effectively science-denying resolution by the Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities, Darrin Qualman,, Director of Climate Crisis Policy and Action with the National Farmers Union, talks about some better ways forward for farming.. The NFU is advocating for establishment of a Canadian Farm Resilience Agency, with ultimately a three-fold purpose: (i) enabling farmers to develop resilience and implement adaptation measures in the face of the escalating impacts of climate change, (ii) enabling farmers to reduce their own GHG emissions, and (iii) ensuring financial security and viability for farmers.https://www.nfu.ca/tag/climate-change/ Hosted on Acast.
