Land: the silent partner in the climate debate

Natural systems, which lock up carbon, are our biggest ally in race to net zero and staying under 1.5°C. They answer pressing questions being asked at COP26 about how to harness land for food and climate, and more.

A growing movement of citizens is already working to fix how we use our land, how we grow our food - because if we can fix food, we can fix the planet. This autumn, we hit the road (on our bikes) to talk to the people taking action.

Here we share a flavour of what we heard on the tour, as well as the latest Farming for Change research which charts a course for the future that works for all.
