5.3.1Support the reduction of GHG emissions from livestock, and develop methane capture and energy production from manure

Progress

Description

When manure breaks down, it generates methane, a gas that is 25 times more damaging to our climate than carbon dioxide. When this methane is captured and burned, it reduces overall emissions and generates energy that can be used on-site.

This action will be led by local agricultural organizations and the Townships, with support from local utilities regarding energy generation. There are no publicly available updates at this time.
