Who We Are
The Food and Agriculture Climate Alliance (FACA) initially began as an informal dialogue between eight organizations discussing opportunities for the food, agriculture, and forestry sectors to help advance climate solutions across the supply chain. Since formally launching in 2020, FACA has grown into an 80+ member coalition. Today, our broad membership represents farmers, ranchers, forest owners, agribusinesses, manufacturers, the food and innovation sector, state governments, higher education associations, sportsmen and sportswomen, and environmental advocates.
FACA members are united in support of federal climate policies that:
- Are voluntary, market- and incentive-based;
- Advance science-based outcomes;
- Promote resilience and help rural economies better adapt to climate change;
- Ensure equitable opportunities for all farmers, ranchers, and forest owners, including historically underserved and small producers; and
- Are strongly bipartisan.
