Including biodiversity and water use issues into assessments of agricultural sustainability

经济和环境绩效是确定可持续农业模式的关键。我们建议使用和扩展由阿伯丁大学和联合利华开发的温室气体估算工具，以加速将可持续实践纳入主流农业。项目的重点将是确定直接的胜利：为个人用户、产品或地理区域赢得方案，其中减排与即时盈利或降低风险相关，实现所需的行业认可，使该方法成为生物能源作物的标准评估和基准，使用相同的方法将温室气体评估与生物多样性和水影响等其他环境可持续性绩效指标相结合

Economic and environmental performance are key to locating a sustainable model for agriculture. We propose the use and expansion of a GHG estimation tool developed by the University of Aberdeen and Unilever to accelerate the adoption of sustainable practice into mainstream agriculture. The focus of the project will be on identification of straightforward win: win scenarios for individual users, products or geographic regions, where emissions reduction is associated with an instant profitability gain or risk reduction achieving the required industry endorsement to make the method a standard assessment and benchmarking of bio-energy crops using the same method integration of GHG assessments with other environmental sustainability performance indicators such as biodiversity and water impacts
