For the article of the week this week, we discuss Joe Biden’s plan to incentivize farmers to incorporate more regenerative agriculture processes into their current farming operations. 

This topic generated some exaggerated headlines recently with people reporting that President Biden wanted to limit our red meat consumption. This isn’t true. This came from a misrepresentation of President Biden’s plan. President Biden wants to support farmers that have incorporated regenerative agriculture practices and are focusing on methods that will actually increase the amount of carbon in our soil by pulling it out of the air. This is one way that we can reduce the carbon in the atmosphere and slow down global warming. 

To learn more about the current problems with modern agriculture and the President’s plan to address it, listen to this week’s podcast.
