Bugün aramıza katılan Russ Konseri Russ, Shell'de 30 yılını geçirmiş bir makine mühendisi ve girişimcidir ve şimdi bir rejeneratif tarım girişimcisi ve bilim insanıdır ve bu nedenle kariyerinin ilk yarısını büyük petrol bulma ve ölü karbonu çıkarma işinde geçirmiştir. deep earth ikinci yarısını yeni teknolojiler geliştiren bilim insanlarına ve yenilikçilere yatırım yaparak geçirdi, nihayetinde raflardaki ezber bozan programa liderlik ediyordu russ 2013'te Shell'den emekli oldu ve o zamandan beri bilime odaklandıve rejeneratif tarım uygulamalarını ölçeklendirmek için çalışarak canlı karbonu sığ toprağa geri koyma işi Russ şu anda otla beslenen borsanın başkanı ve Blue Nest Beef'in CEO'su.

annual conference get together compare notes on how to do better it continues to grow and it’s just awesome to be a part of that community of people of learning the farmers are really trying um and and at least in in my experience they’re trying to find a way to extract themselves from a system that frankly isn’t working very good for them it it I mean the hardest job in america today that pays the least is being a farmer in my opinion um and if if we can kind of make it pay economically for people so that pay economically can be like the type of stuff i’m doing right now which is um you you produce a better quality product that’s certified under a certain set of protocols i’ll pay you more for that product and then i’m going to charge consumers more for that product right so my challenge is to um help educate consumers on a premium product and then involve them in a supply chain that brings that up the the wonderful stuff you guys are doing there at grassroots carbon um is the other major thrust right is all these other wonderful benefits that are being created by um regenerative agriculture is there a way to direct revenue from those um things back to the farmer I think it’s still real early in that journey there is this um kind of soul carbon gold rush thing going on right now and it is kind of a wild west of uh of stuff going on and and I think it’s too early to say what’s the perfect recipe to do this I mean there are multiple ecosystem services engaged in regenerative agriculture there’s the carbon there’s better water infiltration great paper just yesterday out of canada documenting different differential water infiltration on like 35 ranches in alberta that was really good um biodiversity um there was just uh a a big report out two weeks ago from the international panel on bio diversity and ecosystem services in combination with ipcc which people are familiar with climate change basically saying hey these two problems they’re the same problem and we can’t solve biodiversity without solving climate change we can’t solve climate change without addressing biodiversity is there a way to I mean we there are major groups doing wonderful things for conservation most famous of which is ducks unlimited supporting a lot of grassland habitat restoration wetland pothole ponds and prairies a great duck habitat I think those are all great ways for land stewards to be able to drive additional revenue now how all that plays out how much it adds up there’s so much uncertainty etcetera right now but I think the only way we find out is by you know turning the entrepreneurs loose and in the in the scientists in parallel I I get worried for what it’s worth about entrepreneurs ungrounded or unattached to science we can start chasing some fool’s gold if we stay with that metaphor yeah but I think properly grounded scientific um entrepreneurial innovation um it will come along and not people I think policy will probably play a role right there’s a lot of people here aware that the senate passed its version of the growing climate solutions act last week um it’s it’s intending to have a role but you know whether it leads or it follows I don’t know I think it’s a little bit too early to say hey here in texas we just passed a uh a soil health legislation uh in um beginning of may uh already signed into law doesn’t mention the word carbon or climate once um um and important like in this growing climate solutions act that was just passed uh last week is um the the recognition and it would have passed 82 to eight right yeah it was pretty bipartisan it was very very bipartisan so I think there’s a huge opportunity here around some of this stuff you know I feel like i’m in this like perfect place right now healthy soil and birds are maybe the last two things that aren’t controversial I hope we can keep them from becoming that way um and get people engaged in uh helping you know build a better food system that simultaneously heals both people and planet so yeah and there’s so many positives there’s the you know the better food system it helps farmers and ranchers uh you know we’re improving wildlife it’s really improving animal welfare too because this is what they’re supposed to be doing um but you mentioned that the thing to really drive change is getting people paid for this and you talk a little bit about this carbon market wild west how do we

you know the people who are going to pay for it is basically the businesses paying to reduce their reduce their emissions and to store their carbon how do we get those companies comfortable with nature-based solutions and for the landowner side helping them to build trust in this market so that they’ll actually participate and we can have all the players involved um scientific technical and commercial rigor um is the the short answer I realize that everybody is skeptical of big excuse me big corporations trying to green wash their operations but trust me the big corporations are equally fearful of being accused of greenwashing and aren’t going to touch this kind of stuff with a 10-foot pole unless they feel that it’s iron-clad rock solid uh documented and so I think one of the key challenges here in in soil carbon markets specifically is to develop and implement with rigor and discipline protocols for measuring tracking defining things they’re it sounds so simple but it’s I think it’s trickier than it looks because right now the technology to do it accurately is also reasonably expensive if you try to scale it too broadly so there’s got to be some good technological progress as well as just some planning and protocol process progress yeah to to to make it economical um but but I think unless we successfully do that um we’ll discover that um you know the great ambitions and good intentions just don’t have legs and aren’t going to go anywhere so um that’s going to require some patience this is why i’m cautious about the gold rush there really is gold in california but and I don’t know what the numbers are 90 of the people who went to california to buy gold came back with rocks right yeah but some of them got lucky but some of them did their homework um and some learned the science of geology they understand how to read the rocks to understand what it was telling them about where they might find some things and I think that’s kind of where we are with the soil carbon gold rush is we have to patiently move forward with some early projects but with attention to discipline and rigor that advances the knowledge and slowly builds confidence and we don’t try to just do too much at once and say ta-da you know we’ve solved the carbon climate problem look we’ve got all these ranches and farms that are now magically sucking up carbon and there’s some really complicated commercial policy things in terms of um a little known secret is because a lot of the concern that you’ll hear about this stuff is well we can’t use storing carbon in soil as an excuse to keep on emitting um the simple reality is we have to simultaneously in order to solve the climate challenge we have to simultaneously uh reduce rapidly uh how much we’re emitting while we also take a substantial amount of the carbon that’s already in the air back out again so we need both yeah um and you’re absolutely right we shouldn’t let one be the excuse for the other but we do need to drive both um and by the way I think there’s just a whole bunch of other benefits to to this whole regenerative agriculture and soil carbon um stuff that you know even if we learn some things that diminish how valuable it might be in the climate equation over time it still will do a whole bunch of other wonderful things that you know we can all feel good about I really think we will get healthier food we will get healthier habitat we will get better water management and better farmer resilience and prosperity um uh and we just can’t be a little patient we’re gonna have to be disciplined yeah that’s a great point and that’s a great thing to kind of get we’re getting close to the end so that’s a great way to sum that up uh I know it goes fast when it’s just 30 minutes uh but before we go hank moy weir our ceo always likes to ask people if you have a magic wand that only applies to carbon or the carbon credit market and you could wave it and change or change anything what would you do with it um magic technology to measure it better because I it I tell people that the corollary to you get what you measure is what happens with what you need to get you can’t measure very well yet um and I very much imagine that if we had the equivalent of a magic carbon meter in the sky that could count every molecule of carbon that came out of the earth and count every molecule that went back into the earth and it were free

that we would not only be able to help manage the climate challenge but frankly um you know it’s probably a subject for another webinar I think this is the fundam the the most fundamental process by which planet earth functions all life on earth is a function of of how effective planet earth is at converting captured solar energy into energy that can use to feed that living ecosystem life um and and so right now I think the big gap in in terms of solar carbon is measurement um commercial gaps are all in the market and so on getting consumers engaged in a bigger story but that would be my magic wand is better measurement okay well that’s very handy to know and since we’ve got two more minutes i’m gonna go ahead and ask one last question um since we’ve got a little more time uh you’re the ceo of blue nest beef and so basically you’re using cattle for region can you tell us just before we go about blue nest and the connection between cattle to regenerative agriculture and the soil carbon cycle sure um and and that could also be another webinar but um really if you if you think of it um what a what a grazing ruminant like cattle or sheep or goats will do is if they come in and take a bite of grass when it’s like let’s say partially grown or um what does the grass want to do it wants to grow again it it goes back into growth mode and when it goes back into growth mode what does it do it pushes carbon out through the roots and so essentially a grazing animal is kind of like a pump handle on a water pump that every bite an animal takes if it’s done in the right ecological context helps kind of keep that carbon pump moving now the connection to the birds is interesting because the other thing that you get above ground in reflection of that is first you get a food pyramid below the ground that starts with bugs and worms and things like that that are easy to understand can be food sources for the buds bugs but you get for the birds but above ground you get increased biodiversity and you also turn landscapes back um away from homogeneous flat boring landscapes and do rich mosaics tapestries of ecosystems with little niches here and there tall grass here short grass there different kinds of birds like different systems I just visited last month a ranch in iowa that’s just gone into a conservation trust as a bird conservancy focused on bubble link habitat and it arose from the effort of two brothers one of whom is now deceased and recognizing that the bulba link is the perfect indicator they know they’re grazing at their best when the bottle links come and live in their pastures and and so I think we call the bird the treasure and the measure of a functioning ecosystem it’s a legitimate conservation goal in its own right bird habitat but that bird is telling us that we’re managing the rest of that ecosystem so it’s healthy and it’s functioning grassland birds have declined over 50 in just the last 50 years I like to remind people that’s after rachel carson wrote silent spring and after we had the first earth day right so um what we’ve been doing to try to save ecosystems for the last 50 years just isn’t good enough and the more we can get more people engaged in this story not only the producer side but on the consumer side you know if there’s a bunch of people on the call here today look around for producers and you’re doing something regenerative I think them if we can get consumers to go you know I will only buy food that comes from a regenerative system that’s how we’re going to get this thing started that’s truly the silver bullet for all this stuff is consumer demand well that’s great yeah I love that and I love you talking about the the birds is the indicator it’s kind of like we’ve gone from the canary in the coal mine is telling you if you’re running out of air to now it’s the the birds in the grasslands tells you yeah so my audubon friends like to say you know my autobahn friends like to say that the metal arc is the canary of the prairie yeah exactly well russ thank you so much uh we were doing just you know 30 minutes today I appreciate I think we could have gone for hours and hours

mission so I will do all I can to help those of you that have questions and curiosity uh related to the mission well wonderful well thank you so much for joining us today russ uh again for everybody who is here just uh you can follow us on grassroots carbon on linkedin instagram facebook uh we’ll be sharing a recording through our various social media channels from this webinar as well as for future webinars too we’ll have our events page at buildgrassroots.com so you can sign up for more um if you have any questions please feel free to reach out to our team and again thank you so much russ it was wonderful to have you here today that’s awesome thanks again for having me it’s a true honor great thank you all so much and uh and we welcome you all to join us again we’ll keep the chat
