Moderated by Dionysia Angeliki Lyra of the International Center for Biosaline Agriculture, Kristin Ohlson will join co-panelists, Nithiya Laila and Christine Gould, in a discussion about soil, seeds, native plants and feeding the world’s people.

Attend the Portland premiere screening of COMMON GROUND, a hopeful and uplifting story of the pioneers of the “Regenerative Movement” who produce tremendous quantities of nutritionally dense food and are working to balance the climate – all while bringing our entire ecosystem back to life.

After the film, join Kristin Ohlson and award-winning filmmakers Josh and Rebecca Tickell for a panel discussion.

In this session, our authors Kristin Ohlson and Christopher Preston will share their incredible experiences with animal behavior ... and the science behind the things they saw. Big picture, what does it all mean? Science City - Main Stage (Seats 195) 

P&T Knitwear welcomes Kristin Ohlson for a reading of Sweet in Tooth and Claw, a follow-up to her most recent book The Soil Will Save Us. Ohlson will be joined by writer Mary Norris to discuss the growing case for the importance of mutually beneficial relationships between organisms, contrary to the widely-held notion of "survival of the fittest" as the driving force in nature. Ohlson and Norris will also examine how reframing our understanding of the natural world might benefit our own relationship with it, and each other, in an age of growing climate crisis.

Join Kristin Ohlson in Conversation With Lee van der Roo, author of As the World Burns.

Join Kristin Ohlson as she presents her book, The Soil Will Save Us, followed by a question and answer hour.

In her latest book, The Soil Will Save Us, Kristin Ohlson lays out a thesis that farmers and climate researchers have been talking about for decades--that a change in farming and forestry techniques could collect and hold enough carbon in the ground to not only mitigate but reverse global warming.

Attend a sneak preview of select scenes from the upcoming documentary, Kiss The Ground. This film is scheduled to hit theaters in 2018 and is the first of its kind to provide a clear solution to climate change through food choices. Based on a forthcoming book with the same title, Kiss the Ground, this film will focus on Regenerative Agriculture and the heroes on the front lines of this new agricultural and food revolution.

A panel discussion and Q&A, featuring voices from the documentary and industry leaders, will immediately follow the screening.
Room: Marriott, Grand Salon F

Hope for the future depends on reversing three disturbing trends: unprecedented concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, skyrocketing rates of diet-related chronic disease, and rapidly diminishing natural resources, especially water. These problems have one thing in common: They can't be solved without soil. We might take dirt for granted, but we can't do much without it. In this briefing, experts will explain how our ability to feed the world and cool the planet depends on how we care for the soil.

United States Senator Bernie Sanders' office has invited Kristin Ohlson to speak during a U.S. Senate briefing. Among topics covered, Kristin will discuss her recent article on how crop insurance has discouraged regenerative farm practices.

Presentation from 10 - 11:30 am. Despite the majority of nutrition professionals being concerned with climate change and its impact on human health only about one-third of dietitians are incorporating climate change mitigation strategies into practice, which include efforts to reduce or prevent emission of greenhouse gases. After this session, participants will be well versed on the state of the climate, how it affects agriculture, and how it will impact human health globally and locally in the years to come. Planned with The Academy Committee for Lifelong Learning.
