Through its turn-key farmer-led, community-delivered program, ALUS supports more than 330 community leaders across 38 ALUS communities in helping over 1,600 farmers and ranchers build and actively manage 46,000+ acres of nature-based projects. These projects, like wetlands, grasslands and tree and shrub plantings, help capture carbon, keep lakes, rivers and streams clean, provide food and shelter for wildlife, and better prepare communities for extreme weather events like flood and drought.<\/p> ALUS also helps governments, businesses and philanthropic foundations invest in Nature & Climate Solutions on agricultural land to generate positive environmental, economic and social outcomes in the communities where they operate\u2014one acre at a time.<\/p> [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>","_et_gb_content_width":""},"categories":[222,219,170,212,176,209,178,179,208],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15116","alus_news_and_events","type-alus_news_and_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-donateurs","category-elgin-fr","category-lambton-fr","category-monteregie-fr","category-norfolk-fr","category-nouvelles","category-ontario-fr","category-outaouais-fr","category-quebec-fr"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n<\/strong><\/h4>\n
