On the target for net-zero emissions Wendel Trio (@CANEurope) says the ultimate goal is to go net negative – take up more carbon than we emit. We must equip our environment to take up this carbon, while also cutting emissions. It's a twin process. #EAdebates #SustainableFoodEU

[Will Surman @SurmanWill]
