Let’s talk about methane!
Often when the conversation turns to methane, people immediately think of cow burps. But what impact do coal and gas fugitive emissions have on our climate? Are they being properly accounted for?
And what does Australia signing the Global Methane Pledge mean for farmers? What does reducing methane emissions look like in practice?
You’re invited to join our next webinar, ‘Let’s talk about methane’. Hear from Dr Sabina Assan, author of report Australia’s coal mines can deliver two-thirds of methane cuts, and Margaret Jewell, MLA CN30 manager, about the impact of methane on climate targets and the possibilities for methane reduction in agriculture.
