We ask whether pastoralists are being unfairly targeted as major polluters and causes of climate change. Are the models being used appropriate and the data accurate? What are the benefits of certain types of livestock production system, and can these offset the costs? What would a more differentiated perspective for climate policy look like?</p><p style="margin: 10px 0px; padding: 0px; color: rgb(32, 32, 32); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px; text-align: left;" class="">The event will discuss a major report produced by the European Research Council-funded PASTRES programme, jointly published together with a range of collaborators with deep knowledge of pastoral systems across the world.
