Agriculture is an important driver of climate change: it currently generates around a quarter of global greenhouse-gas emissions.
This year an EU grant supported company called ‘ZELP’ (Zero Emissions Livestock Project) is conducting large-scale pilots of its patented wearable device for cattle.
On November 2, Corriere della Sera once again took it out on animal husbandry, accused of being one of the main sources of greenhouse gas emissions. Too bad that the calculations released by the media are incomplete.
The extra amount the world must spend each year to create a “net-zero” emissions economy is equivalent to half all profits now generated by companies globally, consultancy group McKinsey estimates in a report on the energy transition.
Investment from the agrifood sector of up to USD $205 billion per year between 2025 and 2030 could achieve up to 9 gigatons of CO2 equivalent of mitigation annually by 2030, according to new reports.
