Takeaways:
- In response to land degradation and drought, farmers in Mexico have found a way to intercrop agave with mesquite trees in order to produce fodder which then helps capture carbon from the air.
- The mesquite fix nutrients into the soil and the agave draws upon them to grow and produce a significant amount of food for the livestock.
- A network of NGOs have organized the Climate Action Plan and are promoting this new system to other parts of Mexico and the world.
