Australia is uniquely positioned to benefit from the global shift away from greenhouse gas emissions. Our wind and solar resources are phenomenal, and our land area per person is quite large. The opportunities for growth outweigh what we have to give up, primarily coal mining. We're also addressing the issue of methane emissions from cows. My group, Breakthrough Energy, just invested in an Australian company called Ruminate, which is working to reduce methane emissions from cattle. There are two approaches: fix the cows so they don't produce as much methane, or create beef without cows. We'll be pursuing both options to determine the best approach in terms of taste, health, and cost.

For the first time ever, our city is measuring the impact of our food choices on our emissions. We have partnered with the C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group and American Express to conduct this study. This is a significant step towards understanding the environmental consequences of our food consumption.

An entity declared it will achieve net zero emissions by 2050, with specific targets for 2025 and 2030 to allow for short-term measurement. Implicitly, the entity anticipates significant financial gains from this transition, believing that being carbon competitive will create value as the world moves in this direction.

Agriculture is responsible for about 33% of global emissions, which could rise to 26-33%. To achieve net zero, agriculture must be a key part of the solution. With a growing population of over 8 billion, emissions from the food system alone could cause an additional 0.5 degree of warming by mid-century. A two-degree future could lead to 600 million people facing food shortages. We cannot warm the planet and expect to feed it. To maintain a 1.5-degree limit, we must reduce emissions from the food system. Scientists, based on physics, mathematics, biology, and chemistry, have warned us about the consequences, which are already happening faster and bigger than predicted.

The speaker states they will achieve net zero by February 1950, with specific, measurable short-term targets set for 2025 and February 1930. They also believe they will profit from this initiative, as the world is moving in this direction. They express confidence that being carbon competitive will create value.

Agriculture contributes 26-33% of global emissions, making it central to achieving net zero. The world population recently surpassed 8 billion, increasing the urgency. Food system emissions alone could cause an additional 0.5 degrees of warming by mid-century. A 2-degree warming scenario could leave 600 million more people undernourished. Reducing food system emissions is crucial to keeping the 1.5-degree target alive. Scientists using physics, mathematics, biology, and chemistry have warned of consequences already being observed. These consequences are materializing faster and with greater intensity than initially predicted.

We focus on smallholder farmers in Africa who typically farm on less than 2 hectares of land. Our goal is to establish a network of agro dealers to provide proper training on planting, fertilizing, and irrigation, as well as access to new pest-resistant, drought-resistant, and flood-resistant seeds. These advancements, known as GMOs, involve altering the plant's genes to enhance safety, reduce pesticide use, increase productivity, and address malnutrition through vitamin fortification. This technology will be crucial for Africa, especially in the face of climate change.

We're discussing the link between our food system and the climate crisis. While we often talk about emissions from vehicles and buildings, we now need to address the impact of beef production. A new emission inventory reveals that food is the third largest source of emissions in cities. A plant-based diet is not only beneficial for our health, but also for the planet. Therefore, we are committed to reducing city food emissions by 33% by 2030 and challenging our private sector partners to reduce by 25% by 2030. We believe that food should be appealing, delicious, and healthy. For those who are serious about cleaning up our environment, we must now prioritize this aspect.

Agriculture is responsible for a significant portion of global emissions, ranging from 26% to 33%. To achieve net zero emissions, agriculture must be a central part of the solution. However, with a growing population of over 8 billion people, emissions from the food system alone are projected to cause half a degree of warming by mid-century. This could result in 600 million people not having enough food in a two-degree future. We cannot warm the planet and expect to feed it simultaneously. To maintain a 1.5-degree limit, we must reduce emissions from the food system. Scientists, based on physics, mathematics, biology, and chemistry, have warned us about the consequences of exceeding this limit, which are already becoming evident and surpassing previous predictions.

It's good that environmental, social, and governance (ESG) labels face scrutiny and healthy skepticism. This is a key reason we are so focused on net zero. We can't stabilize the climate without achieving net zero; it's that simple. Emissions either increase or decrease. If decreasing, are they doing so at a rate consistent with scientific findings? We're basing our approach on the same science that the UN and others use for their one-and-a-half-degree objectives.
