Volunteer to help with a CCL Exhibit at the
|
A CCL exhibit at the World Dairy Expo is an opportunity to invite members of the dairy industry to share their thoughts about recent and pending legislation in Congress to address climate change.
The Inflation Reduction Act expands opportunities for farmers to earn compensation from USDA for implementing specific agricultural practices that reduce or sequester greenhouse gas emissions. Similarly, the "Growing Climate Solutions Act provides technical assistance to farmers to help them participate in voluntary environmental credit markets in the private sector.
The Inflation Reduction Act will also help expand opportunities for renewable energy on farms. Heavily agricultural land in the U.S. is often land with some of the nation's best wind resources. Moreover, according to the 2017 Census of Agriculture, the number of farms with solar panels increased nearly 150 percent between 2012 and 2017, from 36,000 to 90,000.
