A new study from The James Hutton Institute has shown that planting several hundred thousand hectares of new woodland and agroforestry would be necessary to help Scotland achieve net-zero carbon emissions in the livestock sector by 2050.
Our scientists have warned that initiatives that promote self-establishing trees might not always lead to carbon capture at the decadal timescales relevant to achieving net zero and mitigating climate change.
Independent research organisation The James Hutton Institute has set out a target to reach net zero emissions from its activities by 2035. In its new Climate Action Plan 2035, the Hutton also commits to reach net zero emissions from other indirect sources, such as emissions from suppliers, by 2040.
