Australia is apparently overconfident in the carbon capture<\/strong> capacity of its farmland in the road to climate neutrality according to national broadcaster<\/a> ABC. The Camberra government has formally pledged to achieve net zero<\/strong> – or the break-even between the volume of carbon removed from the atmosphere and the total amount released – in 2050. But despite some interesting experiments in the circular economy sector<\/a>, the country is still keeping a low profile on climate issues. Australia’s strong dependence on fossil fuels<\/strong>, in particular, is still pushing up per capita emission levels, which remain some of the highest in the world. Thus frustrating the mitigation effect provided by the soil.<\/p>\n
