New Zealand proposes to reduce agricultural emissions_我的网站

A |     Wellington, Oct 11 (UNI) The New Zealand government has released for consultation a proposal to reduce agricultural emissions, helping give the country "a competitive advantage in green conscious global marketplace", Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said on Tuesday.

The proposal will also put New Zealand on track to meet Zero Carbon Act 2030 methane reduction target.

The government has included many of the recommendations of the agriculture sector groups for farm-level emissions pricing, and proposed modifications in the consultation document based on advice from the Climate Change Commission.

"This is an important step forward in New Zealand's transition to a low emissions future and delivers on our promise to price agriculture emissions from 2025," Ardern said.

The proposal aims to give New Zealand farmers control over their farming system, providing the ability to reduce costs through revenue raised from the system being recycled back to farmers, which will fund further research, tools and technology and incentives to reduce emissions, said the prime minister.

"New Zealand is taking on the challenge of becoming one of the first nations in the world to price agricultural greenhouse gas emissions," said Honorary Professor Troy Baisden of the University of Auckland School of Environment.

Robyn Dynes, a senior scientist at AgResearch, said this approach will provide clear incentives to reduce emissions, with some of the revenue generated from the pricing system directed back into research to identify and develop greenhouse gas mitigations.
UNI/XINHUA PRT。    台风“尾巴”暗藏玄机杭州日报讯 台风“白海豚”已于8月11日在湖北省境内减弱为热带低压，中央气象台于当日17时对其停止编号。

B | 尽管台风已减弱停编，其造雨能力却并未消减。中央气象台于昨日早晨继续发布暴雨橙色预警与强对流天气蓝色预警。受其影响，杭州短期内多雨的天气格局仍将持续。更值得关注的是，“白海豚”的尾流区域内，西南季风和高压底部的东南气流交汇，还将催生出新的低压系统。

C | 未来，“白海豚”残余低压将缓慢东移，与东侧新生低压逐步靠近，进一步增强杭州上空的辐合上升运动，叠加季风源源不断输送的充沛水汽，预计今明两天杭州降雨量将明显增大，局地可能出现短时强降水、雷雨大风等强对流天气。自从“白海豚”开始影响以来，杭州气温已较前期明显回落，昨日起小幅回升至30℃出头。虽然未达到高温线，但持续降雨让湿度明显升高，加上低压环流影响造成气压降低，整体体感闷热潮湿，和梅雨季十分相似。大家可参照应对梅雨季的方式做好除湿降温，居家和室内场所可开启除湿设备，缓解潮湿闷热带来的体感不适、衣物发霉等问题。此外，气象部门特别提醒，当前正值暑期旅游出行高峰，请大家务必密切关注沿途及目的地的天气预报及气象灾害预警信息，提前规划行程。

D | 若遭遇暴雨、强对流等灾害性天气，须主动规避各类风险，远离河道、山体、低洼积水、地质灾害易发区等危险区域。
