The evidence is clear that empowering women and girls with education, access to reproductive health services and work opportunities can give them a better quality of life and have an enormous impact on the planet.

Educating a girl not only has the potential to change her life - it also changes communities and impacts future generations. Educated girls become empowered women who can make choices about family planning. The UN predicts that if 98 million more girls were able to complete their education, it would mean 1.1 billion fewer people on the planet.

What if we could reduce CO2 in the atmosphere, restore health to the planet and secure our future food supply all that the same time? Well, we can! Regenerative agriculture is a system of farming and grazing practices that can reverse climate change by building healthy, biologically-diverse and mineral-rich soils, all the while sequestering carbon from the atmosphere. Global soils contain 2 to 3 times more carbon than the atmosphere. Project Drawdown, has estimated that regenerative agricultural could remove an astonishing 23.15 gigatons of CO2 from our atmosphere by 2050! All the while making our soils healthier and our food more nutritious. It’s a win-win for people and the planet!

We are thrilled to help launch the Carbon8 Fund which supports farmers transition to regenerative practices by paying them to put carbon back into the soil. This will help us reverse global warming by drawing down carbon from the atmosphere, supporting farming in the transition, healing our soils by pumping it with carbon and improving its natural capacity to retain water, and ultimately benefiting our food systems by making our food more nutritionally rich.

"One person, through a donation of $8 a month, can sequester over 1000 tonnes of CO2 per year and offset 80 people who aren't helping yet.” - Mike McCosker

Marine permaculture is a regenerative solution that sequesters carbon and restores balance to our oceans. We teamed up with the Intrepid Foundation, the University of Tasmania and the Climate Foundation to launch Australia's first seaweed platform in Storm Bay near Hobart.

Damon had the opportunity to visit Brian Von Herzen and the University of Tasmania project team in December last year and it was a thrill to see baby kelp bred in the lab now growing on test lines at the field site. You can see it for yourself in the video!

Thank again to everyone who embraced the potential of seaweed as a natural climate solution and contributed to the crowdfunding campaign.

We're preparing to launch a fundraiser for a new seaweed project based in the UK and we are excited to share the details with you in the coming months. In the meantime, all new donations received on the current crowdfunding page will be allocated to the new project. Head over to the crowdfunding page to take action: https://www.theintrepidfoundation.org/seaweed-regeneration

Key take away: We can’t have human health without plant health, and we can’t have plant health without soil health 🌿 🌎
