Zero Foodprint Nordic is mobilizing the food world around agricultural climate solutions in the Nordic countries.Zero Foodprint was founded back in 2015 in San Francisco and is today an international organisation committed to provide argricultural solutions to our climate crisis—through our food systems (www.zerofoodprint.org). Zero Foodprint sees the food system as a major solution to global warming as well as a major cause. ZFP members crowd-fund grants for farmers to switch to renewable farming practices—proven to be the most impactful initiative yet towards solving global warming. Think of it like improving the grid—of food. Just a few cents from restaurant meals, in aggregate, can create acres and acres of healthy soil and shift us from the extractive "conventional" agricultural system to a renewable food system. In fact, healthy soil could sequester all the carbon humans emit every year if farmers and ranchers reduced tilling, applied compost, planted cover crops, and incorporated animal grazing—practices that improve soil health by increasing the amount of life in the soil.
