Ecological Research Center (CREAF)
We thank God for scientists working to sustain nature and humanity. In 2016, Marc Gracia of the Ecological Research Center (CREAF) transformed an abandoned farm into a laboratory for regenerative agriculture — a practice that restores soil health to produce food sustainably and reduce dependence on petroleum. Regenerative agriculture nurtures the vast ecosystem within soil, filled with microorganisms, fungi, roots, earthworms, and insects, which collectively work and absorb CO₂ and retain water like a sponge. This method avoids plowing, pesticides, and harmful chemicals, instead enriching soil through natural fertilizers from forest branches and strategic grazing, which mimics the natural movements of herbivores. By allowing soil time to recover, photosynthesis and carbon absorption increase, potentially reducing annual CO₂ emissions if even a fraction of organic material rises in farmlands. May we support these efforts to heal the earth and feed our world with care and respect for creation.
