How do you cut agriculture emissions without outsourcing food production?
>However, the total of all sectors’ emission cuts will not achieve the 51 per cent reduction by 2030 that has been set down in law. Instead, 26 million tonnes of carbon reductions are “unallocated” between 2026 and 2030, meaning further measures will be required to achieve them. **It is expected that technological breakthroughs in the coming years will help to make up the shortfall**.
Fuck all so bar wishful thinking
The targets for reductions in each area are as follows:
Electricity: 75%
Transport: 50%
Buildings (Commercial and Public) 45%
Buildings (Residential) 40%
Industry: 35%
Agriculture: 25%
Other (gases, petroleum refining and waste): 50%
I’ve only really been paying attention to reddit and not so much to what’s actually been said in the media but jaysus, we really are asking the least of our farmers. Remains to be seen if they achieve this.
Also, three quarters reduction on emissions from electricity? That’s incredible, I hope that’s realistic.
