 Soil Advocate Presents Pro-Meat Message at Vegan and Vegetarian Event Soil4Climate Executive Makes Climate Case for Better Grazing "I am honored to speak to activists who care so much about climate, health, and ethics in the food supply. I stand with them, and ask that they stand with me in recognizing the role of properly produced meats to restore pasture and sequester carbon." - Seth Itzkan March 13, 2019 - THETFORD, Vermont - Wearing a Maasai robe and holding a club given to him by tribal elders in Kenya, Seth Itzkan, co-founder and co-director of Soil4Climate, a Vermont-based, nonprofit NGO advocating for soil restoration as a climate solution, recently delivered a pro-regenerative grazing and pasture-fed meat message to a largely vegan and vegetarian audience at the 5th Annual Long Island Film and Food Festival in Huntington, New York (on March 3, 2019). The event was hosted by renowned chef, food activist, and life-long vegetarian, Bhavani Jaroff, founder of iEatGreen, a consultancy providing information and education on healthful cooking to schools, corporations, and families. "I am honored to speak to activists who care so much about climate, health, and ethics in the food supply. I stand with them, and ask that they stand with me in recognizing the role of properly produced meats to restore pasture and sequester carbon," wrote Itzkan in a blog post accompanying a livestream of his presentation. Itzkan observed that the issue of eating meat is often conflated with the environmental harm caused by factory farming, “... but that’s just a modern aberration, really since World War II.” He continued, "It didn't used to be that way. My proposition [is] to stop factory farming. Meat is a good thing, and more of the right type of grazing is needed to convert the [Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation] system back to healthy meat and pasture and carbon drawdown.” "My proposition [is] to stop factory farming. Meat is a good thing, and more of the right type of grazing is needed to convert the [Concentrated Animal Feeding Operation] system back to healthy meat and pasture and carbon drawdown.” - Seth Itzkan Itzkan noted that when ruminants (cows) are managed properly, they benefit the climate by restoring grasslands, which serve as capacious natural repositories or “sinks” of atmospheric carbon. "Much of the land surface of the world is some sort of grassland or savanna that co-evolved with grazing animals. The soils there are incredibly deep, and rich, and they’re huge carbon stores,” he said. Itzkan also emphasized the necessary relationship between grasslands and the ruminants they coevolved with, saying, "[grasslands] need animals, frankly grazing animals, frankly ruminants, and lots of them, many more than there are now." "Much of the land surface of the world is some sort of grassland or savanna that co-evolved with grazing animals. The soils there are incredibly deep, and rich, and they are huge carbon stores." - Seth J. Itzkan Iowa, today almost entirely devoted to soy production, was formerly home to some of the finest tall-grass prairie and carbon-rich soil on the planet, commented Itzkan. The once thriving, biodiverse ecosystem, created over millennia through the beneficial grazing impact of native ruminants, including bison, has been highly degraded by industrial farming. "That whole state, all of it, used to be tall-grass prairie, with grasses this high [up to one’s eyeballs] and literally the best soil on earth, ten feet deep. How do you think it’s going to be tall-grass prairie again?” he asked, concluding, “With more grazing, not less.” "The whole state [of Iowa], all of it, used to be tall-grass prairie...[with] the best soil on earth...Well, how do you think it’s going to be tall-grass prairie again? We need more grazing. Not less, more.” - Seth J. Itzkan During the question-and-answer session following his formal remarks, Itzkan discussed research supporting the innovative grazing approach to grow soil and sequester carbon advocated by ecologist Allan Savory. In particular, a 2016 paper by Texas A&M research scientist Richard Teague, Ph.D. showed that “Adaptive Multi-paddock (AMP) Grazing,” a form of grazing management akin to the Savory approach, sequestered in soil one ton of carbon per acre per year. If utilized on suitable rangeland throughout North America, AMP Grazing could capture in soil 800 million tons of carbon per year, an amount comparable to approximately two-thirds of America’s greenhouse gas emissions. An annotated list of published, peer-reviewed papers cited by Itzkan appears below. Although Itzkan was the contrarian in this milieu, the mostly plant-based diet audience was primed to hear his comments with an open mind following a gracious introduction by Jaroff, whom Itkan called “a saint in the foodie movement.” Following Itzkan’s presentation, Jaroff stated, "We were happy to have Seth join us to present Soil4Climate’s work on climate change. On our path to addressing climate change in the food choices we make, it’s important to attack the problem from all sides. Let vegans reduce global warming by not eating meat, and let meat eaters address global warming by only eating meat that is raised on pasture, sequestering carbon from the atmosphere.” "We were happy to have Seth join us to present Soil4Climate’s work on climate change.

Let vegans reduce global warming by not eating meat, and let meat eaters address global warming by only eating meat that is raised on pasture, sequestering carbon from the atmosphere.” - Bhavani Jaroff During his presentation, Itzkan wore a decorative robe and held a traditional club, given to him by members of a pastoral Maasai community in Kenya, to honor their partnership with Soil4Climate on a regenerative grazing program near Nairobi. Sponsors for the event included Cinema Arts Centre, iEatGreen, Slow Food North Shore, and NOFA-NY. Itzkan’s full 18-minute presentation, including the Q&A session, is available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqSexbG7-7A Soil4Climate advocates for soil restoration as a climate solution. We promote regenerative cropping and grazing practices to improve soil fertility, increase the bionutrient density of food, restore wildlife habitat, enhance drought and flood resilience, replenish dried-up lakes and rivers, revitalize farming and pastoral communities, and ameliorate international relations while sequestering atmospheric carbon. Allan Savory and Richard Teague serve on the Soil4Climate Advisory Board. Annotated Peer-Reviewed Citations for Grazing as a Means of Building Soil Carbon and Mitigating Global Warming

Date: Thu, Feb 28, 2019 at 10:33 AM Subject: Soil4Climate To: <GretaThunbergMedia@gmail.com> Hi Greta, I can't imagine that you will actually see this email, but on the chance that whoever sorts your thousands of emails for you, chooses to pass this on, I would be most delighted by your reply and to continue the discussion at your convenience. I am the codirector and cofounder of a global environmental organization incorporated in the United States called Soil4Climate. We advocate for soil restoration as a climate solution. This is essential because it is now understood that just cutting back or even completely ceasing CO2 emissions will not lessen the climate catastrophe that is already barreling down upon us. We are going to need to complement emissions cessation with "drawdown," - carbon sequestration - and the largest and most reliable "sink" for this drawdown is in soil. It is also true, that the largest areas for this carbon "sink" are in grasslands and that these grasslands must be managed with grazing - done properly. This requires animals to be part of the food system, but, in a way quite different than that meat factory model that is legitimately frowned upon. Being "vegan," however, is not the answer. The answer is in supporting small-holder, regenerative ranches, where soil carbon increases can be verified and where the return to fecundity is plainly apparent. Below is the post I made on your FB page. I hope you will read it and I welcome discussion with you on this topic as you see fit. Thank you for your time and consideration and for your courageous efforts on behalf of our climate. Best regards, - Seth Itzkan Soil4Climate Inc. www.soil4climate.org facebook.com/groups/soil4climate https://www.facebook.com/gretathunbergsweden/photos/a.733630957004727/767646850269804/?type=3&comment_id=668445086918269¬if_id=1551290955999502¬if_t=feedback_reaction_generic Feb 27, 2019 Hi Greta Thunberg, Thank you for your courageous efforts which are so crucial today. I invite you, however, to reconsider the #vegan stance. That is a misdirection promulgated as a response to the worst aspects of animal agriculture - such as factory farms. There are entirely alternative - and essential - approaches to animal agriculture that manage animals in ways that are ethical and environmentally responsible, and, in fact, necessary for restoring soil to #drawdown atmospheric carbon and bring back fecundity to two-thirds of the landed surface of the planet. We discuss this in Soil4Climate and other groups, such as Regenerative Agriculture Group, reGenerative Grazing Group, Holistic Management Discussion Group, and EOM-Ethical Omnivore Movement. There is also the EOYM - Ethical Omnivore Youth Movement. Please familiarize yourself with these efforts to restore sanity and soil in our agricultural sector. Animal consumption is not the problem - it is land management - and this, in turns out - will be our greatest hope for carbon #drawdown. Below are just two of many papers that put this situation into proper perspective and that show the path to a regenerative future. We are happy to discuss this with you at your convenience. Thank you - Seth The role of ruminants in reducing agriculture’s carbon footprint in North America http://www.jswconline.org/content/71/2/156.full.pdf+html Emerging land use practices rapidly increase soil organic matter https://www.nature.com/articles/ncomms7995  Ten Years of Land Restoration in Zimbabwe, by Seth Itzkan  Hunter Lovins at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Nov 13, 2018, discusses grasslands, soil, climate, and the positive role of Soil4Climate in helping to reverse global warming. Hunter Lovins at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Nov 13, 2018, discusses grasslands, soil, climate, and the positive role of Soil4Climate in helping to reverse global warming. “When the grasslands of the world, which are the world’s second largest carbon sink, co-evolved, they did so with grazing animals. When a cow or a gazelle or any grazing animal eats grass, the roots sluff polysaccharide sugars. That feeds a biological community in the soil which mineralizes the carbon, that’s either in the root mass or in the manure or in the grass that’s being trampled into the ground, and it turns into mineral carbon in the soil. That’s why when the first pioneers went west from here, they found ten feet of thick black soil. That black is carbon, and as Karl (Thidemann) said, the world around, it’s now down to inches. We have decarbonized the soil the way in which we grow commodity crops.” “So, in the book (A Finer Future) we describe Gabe Brown. Gabe was a go and broke corn, soybean, commodity farmer in the Dakotas. Because he was going broke, he said, ‘I’ll try something else.’ First he went to no-till. He stopped breaking the soil and inverting it. Then he planted cover crops, some of them very deep rooted. Then he brought animals on: cattle, goats, sheep. At that point - and he was measuring carbon in his soil. He went from a little over 1% soil organic matter, to in some of his pastures, over 11% soil organic matter. He’s rolling climate change backward. And this is exactly what Seth and Karl and Soil4Climate is talking about.” “There are some articles here (picking up an article) ‘Agriculture of Hope: Climate Farmers of North America’ and then a more technical article over there that (Professor) Bill Moomaw had a hand in (Hope Below Our Feet: Soil as a Climate Solution - written with the Global Development and the Environment Institute - GDAE at Tufts University). So, I called Seth when I was writing the book. I called Seth and said, 'I’ve got some calculations, the numbers of which I don’t trust. How much carbon can we capture and put in the soil?' So, Seth called Karl, called Bill Moomaw, put together a little team and we did some back of the envelope calculations. These are rough calculations. But if you take the best evidence of folk like Gabe Brown - and there now are getting to be reams and reams of peer-reviewed, technical journals showing what farmers and ranchers have done in increasing their soil carbon, and you multiply that out over the grasslands of the world, how soon, how much could we pull down, and how soon could we get back to the preindustrial levels of carbon in the atmosphere? Back of the envelope: 30 years. Yeah. Wow! This is a big, 'Wow!' So, Tony Seba’s stuff solves half of the climate crisis. Soil4Climate solves the other half. We’ve solved it!” Cited papers: THE AGRICULTURE OF HOPE: CLIMATE FARMERS OF NORTH AMERICA BY SETH ITZKAN, KARL THIDEMANN, AND STEVEN KELETI https://permaculturemag.org/2017/09/agriculture-of-hope/ Hope Below Our Feet: Soil as a Climate Solution http://www.ase.tufts.edu/gdae/Pubs/climate/ClimatePolicyBrief4.pdf This video of Hunter Lovins on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PlTgWVDIM44  By Steven Keleti, Karl Thidemann and Seth Itzkan
#1 – Federal: ensure that greater funding for regenerative agriculture and soil health programs is in the Farm Bill. The Senate version has provisions to better support soil health and carbon sequestration, while the House version does not. The provisions in the Senate version need to make it into the final version from conference committee. See, for example: Good Soil Policy in Senate Farm Bill June 13, 2018 Lara Bryant https://www.nrdc.org/experts/lara-bryant/good-soil-policy-senate-farm-bill 5 reasons why the Senate farm bill is a conservation powerhouse By Callie Eideberg / Published: June 27, 2018 http://blogs.edf.org/growingreturns/2018/06/27/5-reasons-senate-farm-bill-conservation/ Conservation for Very Erodible Row Cropland Act of 2018 (COVER Act) https://www.bennet.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/2018/6/bennet-introduces-bill-to-promote-soil-health-and-boost-rural-economies #2 – State: ensure that state legislatures have Healthy Soils legislation on their dockets and/or appropriations for increased funding for state soil health programs, which many soil and water conservation districts have. (Note: this is not yet happening, yet legislators could consider funding programs through a fee on fertilizers and/or pesticides, as over-application of fertilizers and pesticides adversely impact soil health, water quality, air quality, drought resilience and stormwater management.) Draft legislation exists for Connecticut, Iowa, Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky, Missouri, Massachusetts, Kansas, Colorado, Vermont and Oregon, and there is growing interest in several other states. California’s Healthy Soils Initiative is the strongest program thus far. Maryland passed a Healthy Soils bill, yet needs to determine a funding source. Oklahoma has had a small program since 2001. Hawaii funded a small study. New York funded a study toward a Carbon Farming bill. We can help connect people who are interested. #3 – Local: lawns are the biggest “crop” in the United States, and there is growing interest in providing incentives for regenerative agriculture and/or urban habitat on residential properties. This comes up at meetings - “what can I do?” and "what can we do to encourage regenerative practices in residential areas?” In order to provide incentives, legislation at state level may be needed. Bills were filed in Massachusetts the last two sessions to create a local option to allow a revenue-neutral property tax exemption to provide an incentive, but the bills did not move forward.  "There's five times more carbon is soils than there is in the atmosphere." - Dr. Thomas Goreau. U.S. Congressional Candidate, Physicist Gary Rucinski, Calls Soil Key to Reversing Global Warming7/9/2018  July 9, 2018 - Thetford, Vermont - Gary Rucinski, a Ph.D. physicist running for Congress in Massachusetts’ 4th District on a platform to reverse global warming, said recently that the restoration of degraded grasslands worldwide is essential to tackling climate change, because of the large quantity of atmospheric carbon that would be captured by soil. This CO2 “drawdown” can be achieved, according to Rucinski, through adoption of innovative cropping and grazing practices he referred to, respectively, as “permaculture” and “holistic range management.”
Rucinski stated, “We still have photosynthesis and biology available to us as … technologies that Mother Nature has honed over the last three and half billion years, that we can use to sequester the excess carbon load that’s in the atmosphere today and put it back into soils.” "Primarily the opportunity is on about 15 billion acres worldwide of degraded grasslands ..." “Primarily the opportunity is on about 15 billion acres worldwide of degraded grasslands, where if we simply reintroduce grazing herds and manage them properly, we will be building topsoil, we will be restoring wetlands, and we will be growing grass and building soil in order to allow carbon sequestration to happen naturally,” said Rucinski. Making the case that land restoration and a revenue-neutral carbon tax, another policy goal he has advocated, both offer economic as well as environmental benefits, Rucinski said, “We need to get ranchers generally to be aware of the fact that this is a financial win for them because they make due with fewer inputs, they get higher quality beef, and they can sell that at higher prices. So, again, just like the revenue-neutral carbon tax … getting ranchers and farmers to use permaculture and holistic range management is also a win-win-win for everybody involved.” Rucinski’s comments came during a July 6th livestream interview by Soil4Climate cofounder, Seth Itzkan, in the Facebook group of Soil4Climate Inc. A 2016 paper in the Journal of Soil and Water Conservation showed that well-managed grazing in North America could sequester 790 million tons of atmospheric carbon each year. According to the EPA Greenhouse Gas Calculator, this is equivalent to the annual emissions of 620 million passenger vehicles, more than twice the U.S. passenger vehicle population. Rucinski is formally Northeast Director of Citizens Climate Lobby. His opponent in the Democratic primary is incumbent Joe Kennedy III.

Media contact: Karl Thidemann Soil4Climate karl.thidemann@gmail.com  Here's the YouTube version of our interview with Ridge Shinn, proprietor of Big Picture Beef. As described earlier, Ridge had the "big picture" in mind for how a thriving grass-fed beef industry in the northeastern part of the United States can help short circuit the CAFOs in the midwest, mitigate global warming, and help solve the American obesity problem. Some highlight quotes are below. "Give me Iowa and I'll change the weather."
- Ridgway F Shinn, Proprietor, Big Picture Beef, 100% grass-fed, grass-finished in America. "If we graze cattle correctly we sequester large amounts of carbon, we fix the water cycle, and we create jobs." - Ridge Shinn. "In those states (of the northeast) over 600,000 beef cattle are born every year...Over 90% of those are aggregated by the cattle dealers and go west to the feedlots....So, our model is to insert ourselves into that movement of the cattle, so, instead of the feeder calves - a year of age - moving west, we aggregate them and put them on our finishing farm, which is a grass forage only finishing farm in the northeast. We have six of them, and we aggregate a big heard. Then, by moving them 2 or 4 times a day, we can actually finish them - make them fat on grass efficiently - harvest them in the northeast and bring them into the northeast market. “ - Ridge Shinn  Soil4Climate Advisory Board Member William Moomaw Joins James Hansen For Historic Congressional Testimony on ClimateJune 23, 2018 - Thetford, Vermont - Thirty years ago today, on June 23rd, 1988, the U.S. government was put on notice that climate change was real and, if not addressed, the consequences would be catastrophic.
On a then relatively rare (though increasingly more common) swelteringly hot day in our nation’s capital, NASA climate scientist James Hansen laid out for Congress a detailed synopsis of the science of global warming, as well as offering what has turned out to be an eerily prescient forecast for the anticipated rise in the world’s temperature. In understated scientific jargon, Hansen ominously reported that, as he had predicted in 1981, the signal of global warming was becoming “louder than the noise of random weather.” Two seats away from Hansen at the witness table was MIT Ph.D. William “Bill” Moomaw, director of the Climate, Energy, and Pollution program at the World Resources Institute, and today a revered member of the Soil4Climate Advisory Board. Describing this momentous occasion, an Associated Press correspondent recorded the following exchange: Sen. Wendell Ford, D-Ky., concerned about his state's coal industry, asked physical chemist William R. Moomaw of the World Resources Institute, a Washington-based policy research organization, if technology could not reduce the harmful emissions. "I'm trying to find a way to use a resource we have," Ford said. Moomaw replied, "I would argue the resource we have in most abundance is the potential for using fossil fuels more efficiently at much lower cost than building any form of power generation." Moomaw’s career in climate science has ranged from helping to craft legislation to regulate chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) to protect the ozone hole, to serving as coordinating lead author of the 2001 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change chapter on greenhouse gas emissions reduction, and as a lead author of three other IPCC reports (1995, 2005 and 2007). The work of the IPCC was recognized with the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize. Moomaw is Professor Emeritus of International Environmental Policy at The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University, where he was the founding director of the Center for International Environment and Resource Policy, the Tufts Climate Initiative, and co-founder of the Global Development and Environment Institute. I serve on the advisory board of Soil4Climate, an organization that has helped to create a global community of awareness and activism around these issues,” said Moomaw. Inspired by Soil4Climate cofounder Seth Itzkan’s accounts of his visits to Zimbabwe to witness the extraordinary ecological restoration work being accomplished by wildlife biologist Allan Savory, Moomaw extended an invitation to Savory to speak at Tufts University. Just two months after his presentation at Tufts in January 2013, Savory delivered his TED talk that has received nearly 5 million views. Most recently, Moomaw’s research has focused on halting the expansion of the bioenergy industry, its greenhouse gas emissions - officially considered “climate neutral” - greater than if an equivalent amount of power had been generated by burning coal. “Having worked as a scientist in the field of climate mitigation for three decades, I have been encouraged to see the increasing recognition that natural systems already slow the growth rate of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. These systems can be managed to further reduce the growth of carbon dioxide by keeping forests intact, and allowing them to continue to grow, protecting and restoring wetlands, and transitioning to regenerative cropping and grazing practices that capture carbon in soil. I serve on the advisory board of Soil4Climate, an organization that has helped to create a global community of awareness and activism around these issues,” said Moomaw. Please join us in our admiration and appreciation for Bill Moomaw, a pioneering climate champion who truly sees the world as a whole, and has devoted a lifetime to assuring its biodiversity and abundance will be the legacy of generations that follow.
