The choice to compare greenhouse gas intensity of soil-based urban agriculture systems with conventional farming systems brings up an inherently unfair comparison. By reconnecting with food, with ecology, with living soil, we connect to climate solutions and help to reverse the damages of climate change. from U.C.
