Respect & gratitude to @UsherGriner for their amazing voices in support of #conservation and #agriculture! ♥️@NatureAg @FarmBureau
For this @FlaFarmBureau family, sustainability means leaving the land better than they found it. “It’s all about the story. It’s all about the lives that we live and every day practices that really make the difference.”

Thx to @brady_dennis for talking with our @nature_org team about how #farmers, #ranchers, and forest landowners have an important role to play in climate solutions. @NatureAg #agclimatesolutions
“We can actually get a big bang for our buck by addressing climate solutions that also address the nature crisis. - @tom_cors tells the @washingtonpost's @brady_dennis about the #InflationReductionAct's investments in nature-based climate solutions. washingtonpost.com/climate-s…

Great to see #agriculture & #forestry included as natural climate solutions in this bill. Thanks to @SenateAgDems for your leadership. Your staff = ⭐️⭐️⭐️!
🚨The U.S. Senate passes historic clean energy and climate investments! This bill would reduce carbon emissions by roughly 40% by 2030, and it gives us hope. nature.org/en-us/newsroom/se…

Excited to see so many investments in #ClimateAg in this bill!
Congress is facing the opportunity of a generation to bolster the economy. Investments in clean energy and addressing #climatechange are investments in our economy. Congress, let’s get this done!

Great to see #agriculture incentives included for sustainable practices like optimizing fertilizer use and expanding cover crops. Good for #conservation and producers’ bottom line.
“Our message to Congress is simple: Take this deal and pass it as quickly as you can,” says @JenMorrisNature. More on the new Senate deal that would be the biggest U.S. investment ever in clean energy and climate action: nature.org/en-us/newsroom/us…

🤟Amazing community project! "Besides providing the staples of the Hawaiian diet, taro patches and fishponds also functioned as filtration systems, absorbing floodwater and mitigating the impact of runoff into the bay." nature.org/en-us/magazine/ma… #agriculture #conservation #Hawaii
