The Grain Growers of Canada (GGC) has hired a consulting firm, led by Renee Bill Gillett, to develop a roadmap for achieving net zero emissions in the grain sector by 2050. The GGC believes that Canadian farms have the potential to contribute to emission reductions and wants to partner with the government to achieve shared objectives. The project aims to focus on innovation, such as yield increases, plant genetics, and emerging technologies that can help farmers reduce emissions. The advisory council, which is still being finalized, will include farmers, representatives from member organizations, academic institutions, think tanks, and an environmental group to ensure diverse perspectives.

Speaker 0: Today on the show, Glenda Lee Allen Bossler talks with the manager of policy and government relations for the grain growers of Canada, Brandon Leslie. The GGC has now hired a consulting firm to work with them on their road to 2050 initiative.
Speaker 1: So we initially announced the project, our intention to, create a roadmap to achieve net zero emissions in the grain sector by 2050. One of the biggest pieces of that has been selecting, consultants, to lead the project. And so after, quite a bit of deliberation and Receiving several proposals from firms and individuals, through a competitive process, we were we were pleased to select, Renee Bill Gillett, Actually, we had a team of 4, experienced experts to carry out the project. Renee has vast experience in the space of environmental and and economic Solving and in particular some recent experience and a similar type project for the cement industry. So we're fairly confident to, in his ability to lead the project sand is becoming increasingly evident that we must act, you know, now to mitigate the impacts of climate change.
And, we do believe that Canadian farms offer tremendous potential to to play a larger role, make sure that we can work hand in hand with government to achieve our shared objectives of emission reductions. I think farmers expect the government to be reasonable listen to what they say is feasible. So this project is certainly aiming to do just that. And as I said, farmers want to partner with governments in these shared goals. We need to make sure that we do have that maintained focus on innovation, those yield increases, your plant genetics, and other other, new technologies that are emerging that have cause our, farmers to use less emissions.
Speaker 0: Now you talked about the advisory council. Who is on that?
Speaker 1: Well, I won't give away all the names just yet on that. We're still working on finalizing that. But in general terms, it's going to be made up roughly of about half of Farm farmers themselves are farm representatives through staff of our member organizations from across the country. But we wanted to make sure we looked a little bit outside of of just As farmers, make sure that it isn't, just an echo chamber. So we're we're intending to have a couple of members of, various academic institutions and think tank institutions, as well as an environmental, group to make sure that we're we're well rounded and have a diversity of views.
