Setting the TABLE for COP27: Does methane from livestock matter?
COP26 saw the launch of the Global Methane Pledge and since then 121 nations have signed up to it, thereby agreeing to reduce their methane emissions by 30% by 2030. With the food system being one the largest anthropogenic source of methane – even more so than oil and gas – efforts to honour this pledge will likely have implications for how agriculture is practiced; and potentially for what we eat. To explore this issue, join TABLE for a panel discussion on 28 September at 5.30pm BST with leading thinkers and researcher for this next event in the run up to COP27.
