The four new members bring to the Soil4Climate Advisory Board knowledge and experience from fields relevant to soil carbon sequestration, including soil science, grazing management, nutrition, and public health.

“I am pleased to join this distinguished roster of climate scientists, farmers, journalists, impact investors, activists, and others who share a passion for improving soil health and reversing climate change. The increasingly clear, nutritional link between soil health and human health is one of many reasons why returning carbon to soil is crucial,” said Kittredge.

Soil4Climate advocates for regenerative cropping and grazing practices to heal land, improve soil fertility, restore wildlife habitat, prevent flooding, return flow to dried-up rivers, and revitalize rural communities while sequestering atmospheric carbon.
