The Carbon Farmer (2018)

A hill farmer describes the way in which his family have traditionally managed their upland farm for generations. But when climate change loomed, they were forced to adapt while staying true to who they were. Set roughly 100 years from present day, could this be the future of peatland conservation and agriculture?
