Small-Scale Farmers Cool the Planet

Fair World Project's new 17-minute documentary highlights the role of industrial agriculture in climate change while expounding on how small farmers are combating the climate crisis through regenerative organic agriculture.

Fair World Project political director Ryan Zinn explores both the devastating effects and causes of climate change while detailing the benefits of small farming practices for sequestering carbon and reversing climate change. The video skillfully combines conversations with food sovereignty activists, experts and luminaries such as Dr. Vandana Shiva, Coach Mark Smallwood of the Rodale Institute, and Ronnie Cummins of the Organic Consumers Association with footage of small-scale farmers at work around the world, and easy to follow animations explaining both the negative effects of industrial agriculture and the benefits of organic agriculture.
