American Resilience Project: Farm Free or Die

Home » Ecosystem Services » American Resilience Project: Farm Free or Die

“Extreme weather events are hitting America’s farmers hard, and with greater frequency than ever before. Combined with the mounting costs of conventional farming methods that require increasingly expensive fossil-based fertilizer, pesticides and herbicides for ever-decreasing yields, these events are driving many farmers to economic failure. The cycle of extractive agriculture creates dire economic, food security, health and environmental hazards – for farmers and everyone else.” This film advocates for transformative agricultural policies that improve farming livlihoods and address the climate crisis.
