California and France announce the Global Soil Health Challenge (from left): Paul Luu, 4 per 1000 Initiative; CDFA Secretary Karen Ross; Murielle Trouillet, France’s Ministry of Agriculture and Food; CDFA Undersecretary Jenny Lester Moffitt<\/p><\/div>\n

Today, at the Global Climate Action Summit in San Francisco, the government of California announced the launch of a Global Soil Health Challenge in partnership with France.<\/p>\n

The challenge calls on governments across the world \u2013 both national and sub-national \u2013 to include programs that restore soil health under their national plans to meet their targets under the Paris Agreement.<\/p>\n

Currently, only 8 governments include programs on soil health in their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs). Yet boosting soil carbon is relatively easy, through low-tech sustainable agricultural practices. These measures not only help fight climate change, but increase biodiversity and food security too.<\/p>\n

California has invested over $700 million to date in climate solutions for agriculture<\/a>, which include the on-farm strategies for soil carbon sequestration. The state has specifically committed $22.5 million in climate investments for soil health \u00ad<\/a>\u2013 the first climate commitment for soils in the US. The funds come from the state\u2019s cap-and-trade carbon pricing program and voter-approved bond money.<\/p>\n

The announcement follows the launch of a new digital hub from the 4 per 1000 Initiative, backed by the governments of France, Germany and Spain. If carbon was increased in soils by just 0.4% per year, the reduction in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere would correspond to all annual man-made greenhouse gas emissions \u2013 hence the name of the 4 per 1000 Initiative.<\/p>\n

The platform will enable international collaboration between scientists, farmers and financiers on an ongoing basis in efforts to reduce net greenhouse gas emissions by capturing more carbon in the planet\u2019s\u00a0soils.<\/p>\n

Stephane Travert, France\u2019s Minister for Agriculture and Food, said:\u00a0\u201cTo be efficient and to lead to a true transition towards more sustainable agriculture, many actors have to be mobilised alongside the farmers. The 4 per 1000 Initiative will thus contribute to meeting the goals of the Paris Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals. It will allow farmers to live well from their work, and contribute to food security.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Karen\u00a0Ross, Secretary\u00a0of the\u00a0California\u00a0Department of Food and Agriculture said: \u201cImproving soil health is a powerful climate solution. By removing carbon from the atmosphere and storing it in our soils, we nourish the soil for healthy food production and increase water holding capacity to be drought tolerant and ensure food security. That\u2019s the same whether you\u2019re in California, France or any country in the world. \u00a0As signatories to the Global Soil Health Challenge, we commit to apply these approaches and encourage other governments to join us in a soil health revolution to fight climate change.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

About the\u00a04\u00a0per\u00a01000\u00a0Initiative<\/strong>
\nThe\u00a04\u00a0per\u00a01000\u00a0Initiative aims to encourage stakeholders to transition towards a productive, highly resilient agriculture, based on the appropriate management of agricultural soils in food security and climate action. Supported by solid science, the initiative invites all partners to implement practical actions on soil carbon storage. The initiative\u2019s Secretariat is hosted by the CGIAR System Organization, an international organization based in Montpellier.<\/p>\n

About the Global Soil Health Challenge
\n<\/strong>Announced by California and France at the Global Climate Action Summit in San Francisco, the\u00a0Global <\/strong>Soil Health Challenge\u00a0<\/strong>calls on national and sub-national governments to\u00a0include ambitious programs of action on soil health in their Nationally Determined Contributions submitted to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in 2020 and in sub-national climate initiatives as part of broader climate action plans. The signatories agree to promote the development of healthy soils within their respected geographies and report back on their progress at the 2019 UN Climate Summit in New York. The Global Soil Health Challenge is part of a suite of climate smart agriculture practices aimed to strengthen efforts to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and sequester carbon on natural and working lands, including agriculture.<\/p>\n
