Reshaping agriculture: How to fight climate change with farming | The University of British Columbia 

The future of farming is about more than just producing food-agriculture can help combat climate change. But we need to transform the way we think about farming. When we consider farmers as stewards of the land, modern agricultural practices can help us build more resilient local food systems.
Dr. Sean Smukler, Director of the Centre for Sustainable Food Systems at UBC Farm, explains how we need to support farmers so they can become more resilient to changing weather patterns and other effects of climate change. Researchers are developing and testing strategies to help farmers adapt their practices so they can better nurture local ecosystems.
