[QUOTE="Dave645, post: 7849659, member: 55822"] [ATTACH type="full" alt="48DC0D6D-898C-4F1A-AD58-EA19739473E7.jpeg"]998823[/ATTACH] [URL]https://theconversation.com/amp/climate-scientists-concept-of-net-zero-is-a-dangerous-trap-157368[/URL] This link was shared near the start of this thread, this picture is from it, it shows the drastic action really needed to keep global temps to below 1.5 degree from pre industrial levels the target set by the GOP And the pictures shows the mitigation speed required to hit that from my reckoning that means in the next 9 years unless we make big cuts each year like far bigger than any made so far we have zero chance to be even close to the targets the GOP set. I personally think that we are all responsible for climate change our personal choices, travel, buying rubbish we don’t actually need, etc etc. I very much doubt the farming industry has any real carbon credits to sell and if it did it should not sell them, I doubt they even cover most farms extended families carbon foot prints never mind some big companies carbon emissions. auditing farms for there carbon foot print is not a bad thing encouraging a net zero or better farm is a great result but selling credits is not. Every industry and person should be challenged to be net zero or better and some form of incentive or penalty should exist to help push people in the right direction. I would suggest that we all take responsibility to do our best be that fitting solar electric or heat if possible cutting down where possible on travel and air travel. Recycling, demanding more recyclable packaging and products, that can be recycled at end of life. It’s 7billion small changes every day that we need not finger pointing at a few and hoping that will fix it. my challenge to the readers of this thread is to make one change in your life, towards personal net zero every day. That can be not having something, changing the way you do something, not to drive somewhere but walk or bike, saving up for something that will help your move to net zero etc etc. [/QUOTE]
