Organic farming - playing a role in
mitigating climate change?

ulius McGee asks, “Can organic agriculture mitigate climate change?”

Writing on the Guardian he says: “If you were to simply Google the question – which, being a millennial I have done – you would be led to believe that it does.

“I love a good underdog story and, like The Little Engine That Could, I think a lot of things are possible through optimism and hard work. But advocates of organic farming, like the United Nations Food and Drug Administration, think that it can mitigate climate change without the hard work necessary to truly make it happen.”

Read McGee’s story - “Organic farms don't have the tiny carbon footprint they like to tout. But they could”.
