Terrific New Ag-Climate Website Launches

Great News! A new easy-to-use resource tool has just been launched to help provide the latest information, research and policy ideas to the agricultural community and to policymakers o ag carbon offset markets.

The website: www.agcarbonmarkets.com

What makes this resource unique is that it is a product of the Ag Carbon Market Working group -- which is comprised of several farmers who have been past presidents and board members of various commodity groups -- and have been studying the ag-carbon issue for almost 3 years now.

This group has been working in cooperation with the Environmental Defense Fund -- one of the few environmental groups that has a long track record of supporting agriculture offsets within climate policy legislation.

I urge you to check it out -- and report back on your thoughts about it -- and what more it may need?
