• Promote reform of industrial agriculture to agro-ecological
systems such as permaculture,
within the context of protecting and restoring adequate

The four sinks, which are regions of the Earth
within which carbon behaves in a systematic manner, are the atmosphere,
terrestrial biosphere (usually including freshwater
systems), oceans, and sediments (including fossil fuels).
