Because the price of keeping the status quo grows steeper every year, from the human and economic toll of climate-related disasters, fires, heatwaves, and other environmental stresses to the jobs left on the table by not accelerating towards a carbon-free, regenerative economy. Carbon negative materials. Why do we love them?

As understanding of the climate crisis increases and the harm to ourselves, the environment, business, industry, and the economy that will follow, so a desire to not only reduce carbon but to be seen reducing carbon increases. In both cases, carbon offsetting removes CO 2 from the environment.

This involves reinstating some Obama-era policies that President Trump rolled back, like methane limits on oil and gas operations. Of these policies, the methane limits are even supported by many in the oil and gas industry. This one would require “polluters to bear the full cost of the carbon pollution they are emitting.”

Animal agriculture is the largest emitter of methane, a greenhouse gas 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide when measured over a 20 year period. Scientists say that unless swift action is taken, methane from agriculture alone will take us beyond a 1.5C Past marketing drives run by the AHDB include the £3.5-million

Thereafter, as previous IPCC reports have indicated, global emissions must fall by 43 per cent by 2030, in addition to a reduction in methane emissions of around a third, from 2019 levels. If these are scaled up and applied more widely and equitably, they can support deep emissions reductions and stimulate innovation.".

Bacteria in the digesters consume the waste, creating methane and CO2 as byproducts. A byproduct of anaerobic digestion process is a low-carbon fertilizer that has allowed farms to drastically reduce or eliminate synthetic fertilizers use and are increasing yield. The gas can then be used for energy purposes.

  But all this travel comes at a steep carbon cost. In part because air travel is such a technical marvel, engineering our way around direct emissions from burning fossil fuels strapped to those big jet engines on the wings is definitionally “hard to abate.
