What IS a 'Carbon Footprint' and what is the footprint of Canadian crops? | Virtual

Carbon footprint? No problem! New research from University of British Columbia found that Canadian crops ALWAYS had the lowest emission footprints in the world because our soils are sequestering carbon.

Want to learn more about this research?

Join Alberta AgriSystems Living Lab and Dr. Nicole Bamber in this webinar to learn more about how Canadian soils sequester carbon and Canadian crops have the lowest carbon footprint.
