Can organic farming save the planet?

"Organic farming, in and of itself, can effectively reduce global warming. Very few of us know that." - Dr. Timothy Salle, Rodale Institute.

"If organic farming methods were practiced on all the planet's food growing land, it would be like taking more than 1.4 billion cars off the road."

Those are just two of the quotes from this Rodale Institute video on climate change. The video is being aired as part of the group's "Demand Organic" campaign and raises some interesting points.

The nonprofit Rodale Institute was founded in 1947 in Pennsylvania and is behind the long-running "our Farming Systems Trial," a U.S. study comparing organic and conventional farming techniques. The group maintains that organic techniques offer the best solution to global warming and famine.
