The Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CCAC) needs your help – Choose your date and time

Event Series Event Series (See All)

November 23 @ 8:00 am 9:00 am NZDT

The Climate and Clean Air Coalition, a Partner in the Global Research Alliance (GRA), is producing a comprehensive integrated assessment on greenhouse gas emissions and short-lived climate pollutants (SCLP) from the Agricultural and Food sector. The report, to be presented at COP 30 in Brazil, will develop national scale SLCP and GHG emission scenarios for 2050. These will explore ‘emission pathways’ comprising combinations of policies and mitigation measures designed to reduce emissions through e.g. changes in national diets, livestock and crop production technologies and practices, and from improvements in food waste management.

To help develop these future ‘emission pathway’ scenarios the Agricultural and Food report is using the ADOPT model, developed by CSIRO in Australia. ADOPT is designed to provide a quantitative estimate of peak adoption rates and time to peak adoption of mitigation measures based on the characteristics of the farming population implementing these measures and of the measures themselves.

To help ensure that as far as is possible the data used in the modelling reflects the experience of practitioners working across the globe, the CCAC is consulting on the predicted peak adoption and time to peak adoption values. This consultation will comprise a survey in which participants are asked to provide their answers to a selection of ADOPT questions for a subset of the >100 mitigation measures being considered in the report.

The GRA, with its 68 member countries, 30+ Partners and comprehensive array of Research Groups and Networks is ideally positioned to play a major role in this consultation exercise. It can help ensure assumptions about the deployment of mitigation technologies and practices are well grounded and reflect local knowledge and experience.

The survey will open on December 2, 2025, and close on December 13, 2025. The GRA Special Representative, Dr Harry Clark, will hold a series of Webinars to further explain the background to the Agriculture and Food assessment report, the approach being adopted and answer questions about the ADOPT model and the survey. The webinars will take place on the following dates and times. The content and format will be the same for each webinar and participants should choose the most convenient date and time.
