Net-Zero net debate heats up in the Coalition, NSW Young Liberals blame 'MAGA' style policy for the federal election loss. Plus, should US President Donald Trump receive a Nobel Peace prize?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There’s no tradeoff between net zero and growth in the UK. That’s the conventional wisdom and the position of the current government. But what if it’s the decline in available electricity that’s causing productivity, GDP and living standards to stagnate? Research from Kallum Pickering, chief economist at Peel Hunt, suggests there may indeed be a connection. He joins Merryn Somerset Webb and senior reporter John Stepek on Merryn Talks Money to explain that the rise of power-hungry artificial intelligence and the UK’s renewed focus on defense may mean the government should reexamine its energy policies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The latest in a series over Parliament's summer recess, looking at how Labour have performed in their first year in office, this episode features Chris Skidmore, the former Conservative MP, who as Minister of State for Energy and Clean Growth, signed the UK's Net Zero pledge into law in 2019.Later asked to chair a review of the government's net-zero strategy, he resigned from the Commons in January last year over the introduction of the government's Offshore Petroleum Licensing Bill, calling it "the greatest mistake" of Rishi Sunak's premiership, and he now chairs the Climate Action Coalition launched by former US Secretary of State John Kerry.He spoke to host Alain Tolhurst about how Labour have got on with the country's climate commitments and its progress on Net Zero, what he makes of GB Energy, whatever happened to the party's promise of £28 billion of green Investment, and where the Tory party finds itself on all of these issues.To sign up for our newsletters click herePresented by Alain Tolhurst, produced by Nick Hilton and edited by Ewan Cameron for Podot

This week we are discussing one of the more challenging aspects of the UK's race to net zero by 2050 - decarbonising our homes and buildings. Jon Saltmarsh, Chief Technology Officer at Energy Systems Catapult helps us to explore this.

New DCF Podcast Episode Breaks Down the Real Work Behind Energy and Emissions Metrics In the latest episode of the Data Center Frontier Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Matt Vincent sits down with Jay Dietrich, Research Director of Sustainability at Uptime Institute, to examine what real sustainability looks like inside the data center — and why popular narratives around net zero, offsets, and carbon neutrality often obscure more than they reveal. Over the course of a 36-minute conversation, Dietrich walks listeners through Uptime's expanding role in guiding data center operators toward measurable sustainability outcomes — not just certifications, but operational performance improvements at the facility level.

John Harris is joined by the eco-activist, entrepreneur and political donor Dale Vince to chat through his journey from new age traveller to renewable energy millionaire and major backer of the Labour party. Plus, he discusses why he believes business holds the key to solving the climate emergency, and what he thinks the government should be doing to stop the war in Gaza.

The following article of the Energy industry is: “Net-Zero Cities: Policies and Lessons for Mexico” by  Andrés Friedman, Co-Founder & CEO, Solfium.

Kể từ giữa tháng 7/2025 chính phủ Anh tung ra một chương trình 650 triệu bảng, tương đương với 75 triệu đô la để tài trợ trực tiếp cho người mua xe hơi động cơ điện - EV. Tiền hỗ trợ giá mua lên tới £3.750 cho một chiếc xe điện để cả nước Anh đẩy nhanh hơn tiến trình chuyển đổi sang từ xe dùng nhiên liệu hóa thạch sang xe điện. Vì sao chính phủ Anh quyết định dùng ngân sách để tác động vào thị trường xe hơi như vậy? Chính phủ Anh sau nhiều suy tính cuối cùng cũng phải chọn biện pháp mà các nước trong Liên Hiệp Châu Âu - EU đã làm từ lâu : dùng tiền ngân sách để tác động vào thị trường xe hơi, nhằm đẩy số xe điện lên cao hơn, vì ở Anh, con số này đang quá thấp so với Liên Âu. Theo số liệu của Hiệp hội Sản xuất Xe hơi châu Âu (European Automobile Manufacturers' Association-ACEA) vào hai tháng đầu năm 2025, số xe điện dùng pin (battery-electric vehicles) ở EU chiếm tới 15,2% tổng số xe hơi. Con số này tăng mạnh so với cùng kỳ của năm 2024. Nếu tính số xe động cơ hỗn hợp (hybrid-electric) thì con số là 35,2% thị phần xe hơi cá nhân. Còn ở Anh, các số liệu chính thức nói xe EV mới có chừng 1,3 triệu chiếc trên tổng số 35 triệu xe có đăng ký, tức là chỉ có chừng 4%. Con số có tăng, nhưng quá chậm, vì báo cáo của Quốc Hội Anh cho biết năm 2024 số xe EV trên cả nước mới chiếm có 3% thị phần xe hơi và xe hybrid được 8%. Trong khi đó Anh đã cam kết phi carbon (decarbonisation) vào năm 2050, còn gọi là Net Zero. Để đạt mục tiêu đó thì Anh phải có số xe không phát thải chiếm 80% thị trường xe cộ vào năm 2030. Đây là mục tiêu quá tham vọng, chỉ còn chưa đầy 5 năm nữa là phải đạt được. Nhìn lại thì mục tiêu cho năm 2024 là đẩy số xe không phát thải lên 22% thị phần xe hơi đã không đạt được rồi. Lý do vì sao tiến trình giảm xe xăng và xe đốt dầu diesel ở Anh chậm như vậy? Thực ra có nhiều lý do khách quan, ngoài ý muốn của người tiêu dùng, như một số tạp chí về xe hơi phân tích. Đó là giá xe điện, thực chất là giá cục pin, quá cao. Ví dụ dòng xe Tesla bán ở Anh với giá từ 40 nghìn đến 100 nghìn bảng, nhiều hơn từ 1/3 tới gấp hơn 3 lần thu nhập cả năm trước thuế của người lao động bình thường, nên ai mà mua nổi ? Nay, giá xe EV của Trung Quốc nhập vào Anh có rẻ hơn, cũng phải ở mức 20-30 nghìn bảng. Chính sách của nhà nước Anh có sự mâu thuẫn. Từ tháng 4 năm nay, xe điện không còn được miễn thuế đường, và xe mua với giá trên 40 nghìn bảng thì phải đóng thêm thuế “hàng hóa xa hoa” (luxury car fee). Nay thì chính phủ lại trợ giá gần 4.000 bảng cho một đầu xe điện mới, để khuyến  khích người ta mua nhiều hơn. Tình trạng là nửa năm qua thì số xe EV đăng ký tăng lên nhiều, đạt gần 150 nghìn chiếc từ đầu năm đến hết tháng 4, tức là trên đà tăng, nhưng người ta phàn nàn là xe điện mất giá rất nhanh. Giá bán xe sau 1 năm sử dụng từ lúc mới chỉ còn giá trị 50% giá ban đầu, và sau 2 năm thì chỉ còn 40% giá trị. Mua EV là chấp nhận chi phí ban đầu cao, giá bán lại (resale) thấp. Ngoài ra thì hiện cả nước Anh mới có 84 điểm sạc pin công cộng, nên cơ sở hạ tầng cần triển khai nhanh và đại trà thì mới đẩy số xe EV lên được.  Kế hoạch kích cầu (push demand) cho xe điện ở Anh có gì đặc biệt, so với các nước khác ? Theo thông báo của chính phủ thì từ ngày 17/07/2025, xe EV có giá 37.000 bảng Anh trở xuống nằm trong diện được trợ cấp giá mua. Và những xe có chỉ số kỹ thuật thân thiện với môi trường nhất sẽ nhận được mức giảm giá lớn nhất, tối đa là 3.750 bảng. Các nhà sản xuất ô tô có thể đăng ký nhận tài trợ và Hiệp hội Xe hơi RAC cho biết xe giảm giá sẽ bắt đầu xuất hiện tại các đại lý “trong vòng vài tuần tới”. Đây không phải là lần đầu tiên chính  phủ Anh can thiệp vào thị trường để thúc đẩy nhu cầu xe mới. Năm 2008, chính phủ đảng Lao động của thủ tướng Gordon Brown lần đầu cho áp dụng chế độ hỗ trợ mua xe mới, hủy xe cũ, thường là loại 7-10 năm tuổi, có động cơ thế hệ cũ, xả thải gây ô nhiễm cao. Kế hoạch đó đã giúp thu hồi và hủy tới 400 nghìn chiếc xe ô-tô cũ ở nước Anh, tất nhiên các xe mới vẫn là xe xăng hoặc dầu diesel nhưng có chỉ số phát thải thân thiện hơn với môi trường. Hiện nay, nhà nước làm hai bước. Một là cấm bán và đăng ký mới các xe có động cơ toàn bộ bằng xăng hoặc dầu diesel từ năm 2030. Hai là trợ giá để người ta mua xe điện. So với các nước EU khác thì Anh có vẻ chậm hơn. Pháp, Hà Lan, Bỉ, Ireland...và Đức đều đã có trợ cấp nhằm giảm chi phí mua xe điện, hoặc bù giá, hoặc miễn thuế giao thông, hoặc hỗ trợ tín dụng... Riêng Đức có dừng chương trình bù giá mua xe điện vào cuối năm ngoái để chuyển sang một hình thức khác. Nhưng nhìn chung các nước EU giàu có nhất đều đã làm. Anh Quốc đang phải chạy đua với thời gian, và tung ra chương trình trị giá 650 triệu bảng Anh có hiệu lực trong vòng ba năm tới để trợ giúp thị trường xe điện. Tất nhiên, ngoài xe điện thì các mẫu xe động cơ hỗn hợp (hybrid) cũng đang ngày càng phổ biến ở Anh và chính phủ sẽ đầu tư 63 triệu bảng để xây dựng các điểm sạc xe điện, phục vụ cho hai loại xe này. Không chỉ ở Anh mà ở một số nước khác, việc chuyển đổi xe xăng dầu sang xe điện đột ngột sẽ gây áp lực cho mạng lưới cung cấp điện quốc gia. Theo một đánh giá chuyên ngành thì nếu ngay lập tức tất cả 34 triệu xe hơi có đăng ký trên toàn Vương quốc Anh biến thành EV thì lưới điện quốc gia (UK National Grid) phải chịu tải tăng lên 30-50%. Thế nhưng việc chuyển đổi sang xe điện (EV) sẽ diễn ra một cách từ từ, có lộ trình qua nhiều năm, đồng hành với quá trình tăng công suất điện toàn quốc, nên sẽ không có vấn đề gì. Ví dụ chính phủ hiện hành công bố kế hoạch xây 5 thêm 5 nhà máy điện nguyên tử - hiện Anh có 4 nhà máy đang hoạt động, trong vòng 10-15 năm tới. Công trình lò phản ứng hạt nhân dân dụng Sizewell C ở hạt Suffolk vừa được ký lại với Pháp để cùng triển khai. Đây là công trình đã ký với Pháp 18 năm trước nhưng bị trì hoãn. Giờ thì được tái đầu tư để khởi động quá trình xây cất, dự kiến hoàn tất vào trong khoảng từ 9 đến 12 năm tới và sẽ cung cấp điện đủ cho 4 triệu hộ gia đình hoặc điện năng tương đương 7% công suất toàn quốc. Ngoài ra là 4 lò nhỏ gọi là module hạt nhân (Small Modular Reactors -SMRs) và mỗi lò có thể cung ứng điện cho 750 nghìn hộ gia đình. Một lò phản ứng nguyên tử nhỏ này chỉ có giá chừng 2,5 triệu bảng, tức là rất rẻ. Anh cũng như Pháp, Hoa Kỳ...là các nước đã làm chủ những công nghệ năng lượng hiện đại nhất thế giới nên họ đã làm là sẽ làm được. Các nhà máy điện nguyên tử này là nòng cốt của chiến lược Net-Zero (phát thải bằng không) của Anh. Nhìn từ góc độ người tiêu dùng và người lái xe, chính phủ Anh làm gì để hỗ trợ lái xe và các gia đình không có điều kiện lắp ổ sạc riêng? Vấn đề phiền phức hơn cả việc xây nhà máy điện nguyên tử thực ra là cơ sở hạ tầng cho đầu ra, ví dụ Anh cần thêm hàng trăm nghìn điểm sạc điện công cộng.  Một phần của chương trình hỗ trợ là chính phủ cấp tiền cho các địa phương sửa vỉa hè để lập ra các ống ngầm khô ráo, giúp dân kéo dây nạp điện cho xe của họ đỗ ngoài phố vào nhà. Hiện nay chỉ có người có bãi đậu xe riêng trước nhà hoặc gara riêng thì mới lắp được ổ điện chuyên dụng, chịu tải cao. Còn người dân ở chung cư, ở nhà không có chỗ đỗ xe riêng (driveway), thì không thể sạc pin cho xe điện tại nhà. Thế nên việc cải tạo vỉa hè sẽ giúp họ nạp điện qua đêm ở nhà với giá rẻ. Bởi ở Anh, giá điện về đêm rẻ hơn giá ban ngày. Vì về mặt kỹ thuật, xe điện muốn sạc pin nhanh thì cần voltage ở mức 400V trở lên (DC fast charging), cao hơn tiêu chuẩn ổ sạc điện dân dụng bình thường trong hộ gia đình là 120V hay 240V. Anh quốc cũng đang cho xây thêm số điểm sạc pin công cộng giá rẻ (30 xu Anh/kWh, so với giá thương mại lên tới 79 xu/kWh) từ 82 nghìn hiện nay lên thêm 100 nghìn nữa. Ngoài việc bỏ tiền trợ giá cho người dân mua xe điện, Anh Quốc có chính sách công nào khác thúc đẩy quá trình tiến tới Net Zero và khả năng thành công có cao không? Đây là quá trình có tác động sâu rộng tới sinh hoạt xã hội. Chính phủ có ý thức về điều này. Ví dụ với các điểm thiết yếu cho cuộc sống như bệnh viện công thì họ sẽ lắp thêm 1200 trạm sạc pin. Người ta cũng sẽ đặt các trạm sạc của nhà nước dọc xa lộ trên toàn quốc. Hiện tình hình là khu vực Luân Đôn và vùng phụ cận có nhiều điểm sạc pin, nhưng các vùng xa của Anh, Wales và Scotland thì rất hiếm. Muốn phổ cập xe điện thì chính phủ phải bỏ tiền đầu tư cho giao thông công cộng. Đầu tư cho xe bus chạy điện hoặc dùng động cơ hydrogen cũng sẽ được tăng lên. Cả Luân Đôn hiện nay mới có một đội xe buýt dùng động cơ đốt hydrogen, thân thiện với môi trường. Chính quyền Luân Đôn sẽ phải tăng số xe này lên. Xe taxi ở đô thị và xe cứu thương cũng được khuyến khích chuyển sang xe điện. Cũng cần nói là bên cạnh chính phủ thì có các sáng kiến tư nhân từ chính các tập đoàn năng lượng. Ví dụ năm 2022 tập đoàn dầu khí BP đã cam kết đầu tư 1 tỷ bảng vào mạng lưới trạm sạc pin cho xe điện. Anh Quốc có đạt Net-Zero vào năm 2050 hay không là câu hỏi quan trọng. Điều chắc chắn, theo như Quốc Hội đánh giá thì việc đạt mục tiêu này phụ thuộc rất nhiều vào cải tổ thị trường xe điện, vì giao thông vận tải đường bộ ở Anh đang đóng góp 54% vào toàn bộ số CO2 Anh quốc thả vào khí quyển hàng năm. Tóm lại là quá trình chuyển đổi từ xe đốt nhiên liệu hóa thạch sang chạy điện của Anh đã không đạt tiến độ và chiến lược vừa tung ra là cần thiết, tuy chưa rõ có đủ để tạo bước ngoặt hay là không. Thế nhưng dù sao thì chậm còn hơn không và có thể tới đây, Anh Quốc sẽ tăng tốc được quá trình này. Chúng ta hãy chờ xem.

Former Nationals leader Barnaby Joyce has this week introduced a bill to scrap Australia's legal commitment to reach net zero emissions by 2050. And that move has exposed deep divisions within the Coalition over their climate policy. Joyce's push comes as Liberal branches in Western Australia and South Australia have voted to abandon net zero commitments. This all comes against the backdrop of a visit from the UN’s top climate diplomat, who’s in the country urging Australian officials to set ambitious climate targets.Today we're unpacking the debate over net zero and what this means for the Coalition's climate stance.

Evidence shows urgent action is needed to prevent the climate crisis from worsening but political will is waning. As the Coalition takes the debate back to the future on the merits of net zero, questions remain about Labor's willingness to act on its own policies. Reged Ahmad speaks to editor Lenore Taylor, head of newsroom Mike Ticher and climate and environment editor Adam Morton on what's distracting Australia from acting on the climate emergency

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese faces tricky terrain with the government lifting a ban on US beef imports to Australia this week, leaving him open to suggestions he has capitulated to pressure from Donald Trump. We also witnessed a democratic festival in the form of the opening of the new parliament, with former foes Barnaby Joyce and Michael McCormack putting differences aside to attack the government's 2035 emissions reduction target. Soon, the PM will have to decide on the interm emissions target. Some big companies want him to go hard, while others urge a slower approach to the green energy transition. Now that the US has pulled out of the Paris Agreement altogether, what will Albanese do?

Send me a messageIs climate doomism stopping us from acting? In this episode, I speak with climate economist Michael Jakob, author of The Case Against Climate Doom, about why despair is not just unhelpful, it's inaccurate.We explore the real economic tipping points that are accelerating decarbonisation: plummeting costs for solar, wind, storage, and EVs. Michael argues that the shift to clean tech isn't about idealism, it's about basic economics. When renewables are cheaper and more reliable, adoption becomes inevitable.We dig into the role of carbon pricing, the importance of framing climate action around opportunity, not sacrific, and the political realities holding back faster policy change. Michael also shares examples from countries like Ethiopia and Vietnam, where rapid transitions are already underway.We talk about the limitations of international climate negotiations, the growing role of culture in shaping climate awareness, and why fear alone doesn't drive actio, agency does.If you're working in business, policy, or sustainability, this conversation offers a critical reframing: the future is still in our hands, and in many places, it's already arriving faster than expected.

In this episode of Vineyard Underground, we welcome Dr. Belinda Kemp, viticulture and enology researcher at NIAB in East Malling, England, to explore the evolving wine industry in the UK. With a background in theatrical arts and a PhD in Pinot Noir, Dr. Kemp brings a dynamic perspective to the scientific and practical aspects of cool climate viticulture. The conversation covers England's emerging reputation for sparkling wine, the impact of climate variability on grape production, and the country's increasing focus on sustainability and innovation. Dr. Kemp discusses the shift from traditional varieties like Chardonnay and Pinot Noir toward disease-resistant hybrid grapes, including the introduction of PiWi varieties. She shares the challenges of managing common diseases like downy and powdery mildew and emerging threats like black rot. Listeners also get a glimpse into the latest research projects at NIAB, including the effects of pruning methods on yield, the role of calcium in sparkling wine stability, and the use of companion plants to improve vineyard biodiversity. Dr. Kemp explains how NIAB integrates technology and sustainability — from acoustic soil monitoring to underground rhizolabs — to support growers and improve wine quality. Whether you grow grapes in England or a similar cool, wet climate like the eastern U.S. or Canada, this episode offers applicable knowledge for tackling vineyard challenges and embracing innovation. In this episode, you will hear: England's wine industry is expanding rapidly, with a strong focus on sparkling wines New disease-resistant grape varieties are being trialed to meet climate and production demands Variability in spring weather creates challenges for cover crops, planting, and pest pressure Calcium stability is becoming an issue in sparkling wine production — NIAB is studying causes and solutions Companion planting and acoustic soil monitoring are part of a systems approach to regenerative viticulture Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!

The former home secretary, Suella Braverman, is the special guest on today's edition of The Daily T.The Conservative MP and ex-attorney general explains why she thinks it's time for the UK to leave the ECHR, how it's thwarted our ability to control our borders and undermines the sovereignty of Parliament.Braverman also talks through the frustration she experienced at being “powerless” whilst running the Home Office amid a “lack of political will” to get a grip on illegal migration. She also takes aim at former prime minister Rishi Sunak's “broken promises” on stopping the boats, and outlines why there could be “some truth” in Nigel Farage's belief that Britain is on the verge of societal collapse.The former home secretary also explains why she remains committed to the Conservatives despite there still being “arrogance and complacency” within the party, as well as why she feels no sympathy for Rachel Reeves and her belief that Keir Starmer is “incompetent” and “a fool”.Producers: Lilian Fawcett and Georgia CoanSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersExecutive Producer: Charlotte SeligmanEditor: Camilla TomineyStudio Operator: Meghan SearleProduction assistance from James Keegan Hosted on Acast.

How would you encourage sustainable behaviour?  You might assume logical messages work best.  Stuff like “the average three-hour flight creates ~250–400 kg of CO₂”.  But today's guest on Nudge has tested logical messages.  And they don't work.  Today on Nudge, Toby Park from the Behavioural Insights Team explains how renaming a meat-free dish doubled its sales. Why targeting home-movers made Americans 400% more likely to cycle. How social norms can increase sales by 20%. And the reframing led the majority of Brits to choose energy-efficient fridges.  ---  Watch the bonus episode: https://nudge.kit.com/27720ca0ad Connect with Toby on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/toby-park-67773279/  Read Toby's Net Zero Report: https://shorturl.at/Wy8RP How to Build a Net Zero Society: https://shorturl.at/0PcRk Sign up for my newsletter: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/mailing-list  Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew-22213187/  Watch Nudge on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nudgepodcast/  --- Sources:  Das, G., Spence, M.

In this episode, I'm joined by Brad Leavitt—entrepreneur, leader, Luxury General Contractor in Arizona, and the force behind AFT Construction. Brad's story is one of vision, grit, and long-term thinking. He started as an electrician in San Diego and went on to build one of the most respected construction companies in the country, known for high-end, Net Zero homes and unique custom builds like baseball fields and lazy rivers.But what really sets Brad apart is how he leads—from building an intentional company culture to investing in mentorship and paving the way for the next generation of builders.We talk about the real challenges behind scaling a business, what it takes to lead a team that stays aligned and inspired, and how Brad uses social media as a strategic tool for growth and connection. We also get personal about family, legacy, and the often overlooked emotional side of building something great.Brad's newest initiative, the Contractors Coalition Summit, is just another example of how he's pouring back into his industry and helping younger builders rise.In this episode, we cover:

Secrets, lies and spies are on the agenda for this week and your co-pilots are here to make sense of the madness.Allison is horrified by the secrecy surrounding the Ministry of Defence data leak, which has been estimated at a potential cost of £7bn to the UK tax payer, without any oversight or accountability of where people will be settled around the Country.Meanwhile Liam focuses on the news inflation has increased and the warning that the Labour tax increases are curtailing growth, which could lead to the dreaded term ‘stagflation'.Stowing away this week is MD of REIDsteel, Simon Boyd, who lays out his case for Ed Miliband's net zero policies being ‘dangerous'.Read Allison: ‘Starmer is sacrificing our troops on the altar of human rights law' https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/07/15/starmer-sacrificing-british-troops-on-altar-of-human-rights/ |Read more from Allison: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/authors/a/ak-ao/allison-pearson/ |Read Liam: ‘Reeves needs to take a leaf out of Gordon Brown's book‘ ​​https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2025/07/13/reeves-needs-take-a-leaf-out-gordon-brown-book/ |Read more from Liam: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/authors/liam-halligan/ |Need help subscribing or reviewing?

Send me a messageIn this episode of Climate Confident, I sat down with Kanika Chandaria, Climate Lead at Agreena, to explore one of the most overlooked yet high-impact climate solutions: soil.We talked about why regenerative agriculture is gaining traction, not just as a nature-based solution, but as a scalable, economically viable climate strategy. Kanika broke down how soil has the potential to sequester 2–5 gigatonnes of CO₂ annually, making it a key lever for companies aiming to meet net zero targets.We also got into the challenges: from the financial barriers facing farmers to the complexity of MRV (measurement, reporting, and verification) for soil carbon. Kanika explained how Agreena combines satellite imagery, AI, and selective soil sampling to deliver robust data at scale, data that's now being used not just for carbon markets, but to inform sustainable loans and supply chain initiatives.We examined the growing role of the private sector in climate action, especially as policy delays continue in the EU and US. And we discussed the importance of interoperability, why regenerative farming solutions need to work across carbon markets, food systems, and financial products.If you're a business leader thinking seriously about decarbonisation, soil carbon may be the high-impact tool you've been missing.
