Corn growers say farmers are working to fight growing concerns about climate change.
By Jo Ingles - January 8, 2010
The head of the Ohio Corn Growers Association says farmers in the Buckeye State are doing a lot to cut down on greenhouse gases. Dwayne Seekman recently represented corn growers at the international conference in Copenhagen to talk about climate change. Seekman explains Ohio farmers are trying to reduce their environmental footprint.


Seekman says agriculture world wide is responsible for about 14% of all greenhouse gas emissions. But he says developing countries are responsible for about three fourths of that pollution.
