Agriculture could be part of solution to global warming - Economic Times- About: global warming news

According to a report in Environmental News Network (ENN), innovations in food production and land use that are ready to be put to work could reduce greenhouse gas emissions equivalent to roughly 25 percent of global fossil fuel emissions and be managed to reduce carbon already in the atmosphere as well. By contrast, agricultural and land use management practices that are ready today could be employed to sequester carbon through photosynthesis by growing and sustaining more plants. Policymakers must go beyond improving energy efficiency and scaling up renewables and add ways to pull down emissions from forestry and agriculture operations. Ravi Pisharody, senior vice-president, commercial vehicles business of Tata Motors, will replace Mr Telang as head of the commercial vehicle division after the latter was made managing director of the company. A new report released by the Worldwatch Institute has said that agriculture could become a big part of the solution to global warming.
