Soil Solutions film now with Simplified Chinese subtitles!

April 22nd, 2016

U.S. President Barack Obama and Chinese President Xi Jinping will mark Earth Day 2016 by signing the Paris Climate Agreement at an official ceremony at the United Nations headquarters in New York City.

Meanwhile, Center for Food Safety, a national nonprofit organization, celebrates the occasion by releasing a new version of its short film Soil Solutions to Climate Problems with Simplified Chinese subtitles.

The four-minute film, which had its first screening at COP21 in December 2015, outlines the vast global opportunity to rebuild soil health as a win-win strategy to sequester excess atmospheric carbon. The video is narrated by well-known American food author Michael Pollan and highlights the French Ministry of Agriculture’s ambitious “4 per 1000” initiative for food and climate security.

By increasing the carbon content of their soils, the United States and China could improve their food, water and climate security, while making significant strides toward the greenhouse gas reduction targets set forth in the historic Paris agreement.
