ABOUT


Welcome to our enhanced website, now under development.
Our focus is shifting to how food can be a powerful natural climate solution. We have solutions you can use, like how to choose food that helps Mother Earth. The website will become an archive of useful information and clear action paths.
The new website should be ready to publish in the first half of 2026.

BIOGRAPHY – Who are Robert and Chris Dixon?

Hi, I’m Rob and I’m Chris. We want to help people, especially youth in high school, use science to develop daily habits. These habits can help Mother Earth deal with the human caused climate crisis.

Solutions exist to all the problems humanity faces (see Sudbury Ontario Canada and Acid Rain). The political courage to do what is needed, is lacking. Most people do not know the many small things they can do every day to help Mother EARTH with the climate crisis. Few are talking about how food production can become a natural climate solution. Today, agriculture emits carbon, but changes in practices can use biological processes to draw down excess air carbon for use in the soil. This helps lower global temperatures. Lower temperatures means less extreme weather.

The food you choose to eat everyday can either help Mother Earth or add more carbon to the atmosphere (Air).

FOOD is the golden thread to hold onto that will lead us through the maze of challenges that confront us, as individuals and for humanity. Biological carbon capture can be applied to food production as well as other areas eg. greening hospitals to improve recovery from surgery, adding green plant biodiversity to high crime streets and transit hubs to reduce violence, give day-cares in urban settings areas of healthy soil the children can plant lettuce seedlings in, as this helps improve their immune function.

In a world of complexity with uncertain outcomes, we offer something simple that works well.
