Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from Australian farm dams

澳大利亚数百万座农场水坝在减少温室气体排放方面还有未开发的潜力。该项目旨在量化全国范围内农场水坝的碳足迹，并为“绿色”做法制定低成本战略。该项目为澳大利亚应对气候变化的承诺做出了贡献，旨在使农民能够大幅减少其农场水坝的碳足迹。它还将通报减少农场大坝排放的替代管理战略的经济可行性，并提供财政激励措施的建议。该项目将提高澳大利亚实现其碳减排目标和缓解人为气候变化的能力。

There is an untapped potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from millions of Australian farm dams. This project aims to quantify the nation-wide carbon footprint of farm dams and develop low-cost strategies for “greener” practices. Contributing to Australia’s commitment to tackle climate change, this project aspires to empower farmers to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of their farm dams. It will also inform on the economic viability of alternative management strategies for mitigating farm dam emissions and provide recommendations for financial incentives. This project should enhance the capacity of Australia to meet its carbon reduction targets and mitigate anthropogenic climate change.
