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. In extreme cases, western Canadian crops could be shipped to western European markets an additional 17 times before their carbon footprint would break even with crops grown in Europe! 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.

Join Alberta AgriSystems Living LAb and the British Columbia Cattlemen’s Association to learn more about how grazing cattle has helped to manage wildfires in BC. With the rise of devastating and intense fire events in British Columbia, it is clear that wildfire mitigation strategies are urgently needed. After witnessing firsthand how grazing can impact fire behaviour, ranchers, researchers and municipalities have come together to collaborate on a series of pilot projects utilizing cattle to reduce fire risk adjacent to urban communities.
