The decisions we make as gardeners affect our planet. We can make choices that will help lower the carbon in our atmosphere and select which products and companies we want to support. Learn which is the largest “crop” in the United States and a variety of actions you can take to lower your carbon footprint outside. The speaker will be using the book Drawdown: The Most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed to Reverse Global Warming, edited by Paul Hawken, and other resources.
