Climate

These practices help mitigate soil, water and air pollution, biodiversity loss, wildfires, droughts and floods, and the damage they leave behind. Around the Mediterranean, the backdrop is still drought and rain that comes in bursts. We work worldwide from La Palma de Cervelló (Barcelona).

Field Soil, water and air A sealed soil, or one loaded with more nutrients than it can hold, pushes the problem into water and air. With more organic matter and active soil life, the soil keeps nutrients and water instead of losing them. The bar shows a global share, not a measurement from this farm. IPCC, Synthesis Report, 2023. In 2019, agriculture, forestry and other land use (AFOLU) was 22% of global net greenhouse-gas emissions. The bar is that sector share, not one farm’s footprint.
Field Biodiversity loss These practices help slow biodiversity loss. The horses in the paddock, with the mountain behind, are a visible sign. Insects, birds and indicator plants come back when the farm gives them something to live on. The figure is global, not a census of this farm. IPBES, Global Assessment, 2019. Around 25% of assessed animal and plant species are threatened. Pollution is one direct driver, with land-use change, exploitation, invasive species and climate.
Field Fires, droughts and floods They help mitigate wildfires, droughts and floods and the damage they cause, though they don’t change the climate. With covered soil and a keyline design, water spreads out and the risk drops, without disappearing. Harvesting water in the landscape and keeping soil covered and alive: two levers you can see in the field. UNEP, Spreading like Wildfire, 2022. Extreme landscape fires could rise by up to 14% by 2030, 30% by 2050 and 50% by 2100. That is a projection. IPCC, 2023: roughly half the world’s population faces severe water scarcity for at least part of the year.
