Professor Julie Ingram: Are greenhouse gas accounting tools working for farmers in the UK?

In this seminar Julie will give an overview of the GHG farm accounting context in the UK, drawing on insights from the ongoing Land Use Net Zero FOOTPRINT project. In this project, 100 farms, three GHG tool companies, researchers and land agents across four UK nations are collaborating to create a scalable auditable process to sustainably and equitably reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The seminar will focus on farmers’ and other stakeholders’ understanding of, and confidence in, GHG accounting tools, and the potential for these tools to support learning and build net zero literacy. The governance and equitability implications of scaling these tools will also be considered.
