Nachhaltige #Landwirtschaft fördern: Das ist das Ziel kooperativer AUKMs (Agrarumwelt- und Klimamaßnahmen) der #EU. Sie sollen Landwirtinnen und Landwirte dazu motivieren, Maßnahmen zu #Biodiversität, #Ökosystemleistungen und #Klimaschutz auf ihren Flächen zu integrieren. Doch wie hoch ist die Teilnahmebereitschaft?
Das hat eine Studie mit Beteiligung unserer Uni gezeigt und wichtige Rahmenbedingungen aufgezeigt: https://www.uni-goettingen.de/de/3240.html?id=7755

“The biblical concept of Jubilee calls for rest of the land – for the liberation of land from exploitation, extraction and drilling – to allow regeneration and renewal of our only planetary home. We know that the clock is ticking on #ClimateChange. We need to put a stop to #FossilFuel extraction and production if we are to prevent the worst consequences of climate change. This is why churches are supporting and calling for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty now.” https://www.pcusa.org/creation-is-a-gift-from-god-and-we-are-called-to-steward-it
