Re: Regional renewal
What can Australian agriculture do to address climate change? This is the question that Currie has enlisted Richard Eckard, Professor and Director of the Primary Industries Climate Challenges Centre at the University of Melbourne, to reimagine in our latest episode of Re.
The impacts of climate change and extreme weather events on farmers is a pressing threat to our food systems and our future. In this episode, Currie Director Fiona Davis interviews Professor Eckard as they discuss all things climate change and we learn about reframing carbon neutral to net zero, putting value on biodiversity, engaging the consultancy sector in carbon mitigation and accounting, and the quest to empower the next generation of farmers.
