Young Farmers Of Color Can Help the U.S. Meet Its Climate Goals. Is Washington Listening?

Getting young, climate-conscious farmers on the land "is the best way we can fight climate change,” one advocate says.

“Many young farmers share Kent’s commitment to sustainability, according to a new report from the National Young Farmers Coalition (NYFC). In a survey of over 10,000 farmers across the country, 86% of respondents under 40 said they used regenerative farming practices, which the survey defined as “an approach to farming and ranching that builds healthy soils and ecosystems, supports climate-resilient farms and communities, and addresses inequity in agriculture.”

Of course, as the survey notes, regenerative farming practices aren’t new. Indigenous communities — many of whom were pushed off the land they stewarded for millennia — innovated and practiced these farming techniques for generations.

‘Young farmers today find motivation to farm in environmental conservation, anti-racism, and creating healthy, food secure, and climate-resilient communities,’ says Vanessa Garcia Polanco, NYFC’s policy campaign director.

Overhauling the United States’ agriculture system will be crucial to meeting its climate goals. Farms cover about 40% of all U.S. land, according to the most recent census, and agriculture accounts for about 11% of the country’s greenhouse gas emissions.”

Color, body, and Environment.

The goal of the project was to wear one solid color and blend in or stand out from each and every Environment indoors or outdoors to give a perspective of depth compared to model (me in this case) in the photos. In some photos it’s clear that I definitely stand out while in other photos I feel like I blend into my surroundings. Overall this was a unique project for color and perspective.
