The Tortoise Climate Summit: Is a fair transition faster?

May 12, 2022 @ 2:30 PM - 3:20 PM UTC+1

From their website :

Can farmers fix the climate crisis?

If this small, archipelago nation is to hit net zero, the government must make radical choices about how the UK’s finite landmass is used for food, carbon sequestration, and nature. It can’t keep propping up livestock farms which aren’t economically viable, don’t contribute many calories to the nation, have low biodiversity and sequester little carbon. But politically, it can’t abandon them either. Can fair incentives for farmers help put the land on track to net zero?

Minette Batters, President, National Farmers’ Union of England and Wales
