Climate-Smart Agricultural Partnership

Surging CA diesel prices drive up costs for food producers and consumers. As CARB considers updates to Cap & Invest policymakers must balance climate goals with affordability. More regulatory costs = higher grocery bills. Now is not the time to make food even more expensive.

California farmers and ranchers are proving that feeding communities and protecting the planet go hand in hand. Their leadership shows that agriculture is not only part of the climate conversation, it's a vital part of the solution! #EarthDay #ClimateSmartAg

California's agriculture industry is rooted in stewardship! From cutting methane to leading climate-smart practices, California farmers are proving we can feed the world while protecting the planet. This California Ag Day we celebrate #ClimateSmartAg as part of the solution!

This #HealthySoilsWeek we recognize the essential role soil plays in building a sustainable, resilient + food-secure future. Across CA farmers are leading the way by proving that #ClimateSmartAg helps the state meet its climate goals while providing nutritious food to residents.

Healthy soils are essential for #ClimateSmartAg. California farmers and ranchers are leading the way with practices like cover crops, compost & reduced tillage — cutting emissions while producing the food we rely on. #HealthySoilsWeek

The price of producing + processing food in California keeps climbing from high fuel + labor costs and strict environmental rules. Every step in the process adds up, not just for farmers — but for consumers at the store, making everyday essentials less affordable for families.

1 in 5 Californians face food insecurity while food costs keep climbing. Why? Rising fuel, water + energy costs tied to state policies are squeezing farmers and grocery bills. Is Sacramento taking food production for granted? #ClimateSmartAg climatesmartagca.com/rising-costs-i…

Lawmakers’ new Cap & Invest plan fails to include even one penny of climate-smart agriculture funding. Good luck meeting 2030 climate goals or finding affordable, locally produced food at the grocery store. The Governor + Legislature need to prioritize #ClimateSmartAg programs.

The 🕒 is ticking towards 2030, but quick climate wins are still possible. Methane lasts only 12 years in the atmosphere, cutting it now buys time to tackle CO₂. Dairy projects are delivering big results. California: seize the methane “moo-ment”! #ClimateSmartAg

California’s 40% methane reduction goal by 2030 depends on continued dairy innovation like digesters turning waste into clean, renewable fuel. One ton of CO₂e cut for just $9 = affordable climate action that pays off. #ClimateSmartAg

Climate scientists agree cutting methane is the fastest way to slow warming. CA dairies are leading the charge with cost-effective, proven solutions. California should seize the methane “moo-ment” by continuing to fund cost-effective dairy methane reduction programs.

July is #NationalIceCreamMonth and California dairies are serving up more than sweet treats! With methane-reducing initiatives our dairies are cutting emissions, cleaning the air and leading on climate action. California is scooping up sustainability with #PlanetSmartDairy!

5 million tons of annual methane reductions. Cleaner air. Healthier communities. All thanks to #PlanetSmartDairy incentives under Cap & Trade. Let’s not lose this momentum! The CA Legislature must support a clean & affordable Cap & Trade reauthorization. #ClimateSmartAg

June is #NationalDairyMonth! California dairy farmers are doing more than producing high-quality + nutritious milk, yogurt & cheese—they’re also driving climate solutions thanks to #PlanetSmartDairy To celebrate, grab a cool glass of milk and cheers to #ClimateSmartAg! 🥛

Happy #WorldEnvironmentDay! Food producers are making real environmental progress every day reducing GHG emissions, improving water efficiency, restoring soil health & building climate resilience. Let’s celebrate those who feed the world + protect the planet. #ClimateSmartAg

CA dairy farms achieved a remarkable milestone reducing methane emissions by 5 million metric tons of CO₂e annually! But this progress is at risk—reforms to Cap & Trade could derail proven climate solutions, raise food & fuel prices, and harm rural communities. #ClimateSmartAg

CA dairy farms just hit a major climate milestone: 5 million tons of annual methane reductions—thanks to smart incentives under Cap&Trade. This is what real, cost-effective climate action looks like. Let’s keep the good work going—reauthorize Cap&Trade and fund #ClimateSmartAg

A balanced & affordable Cap & Trade protects our environment, strengthens rural economies & ensures all Californians have access to clean air & affordable food. CA farm families support a cost-effective reauthorization as proposed by Governor Newsom #ClimateSmartAg
