新西兰和乌拉圭已分别制定了甲烷目标,新西兰的目标是到2050年将牲畜甲烷减少14-24%。
New Zealand and Uruguay have already set separate methane targets, with New Zealand aiming for a 14–24% reduction in livestock methane by 2050.
倡导者说,这种做法有助于采取更现实、基于科学的政策,鼓励技术投资,防止对牛肉生产的不公平指责。
Advocates say this approach enables more realistic, science-based policies, encourages technology investment, and prevents unfair blame on beef production.
