Citizens’ Climate Lobby supports the Growing Climate Solutions Act (S.1251). This Act creates a program that will allow farmers and landowners to participate in carbon credit markets. Regenerative agriculture, afforestation, and reforestation promise significant carbon sequestration potential. However, there are significant technical barriers to participation, something this bill seeks to address. This bill complements the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act.

CCL is encouraging our Senators to vote in favor of this bill (S.1251). You can easily do this by going to cclusa.org/write-senator.

More information on S.1251 can be found at Congress.gov
