T-3A1-A-7 - Enteric fermentation from goats

Definition

This emission source is defined by the IPCC in TBD.

Sustainability Category: Amber

Amber

This activity currently has moderate climate impact but may be necessary for urban functioning, with a clear pathway to decarbonization. While not yet climate-positive, this activity is actively improving the emissions profile and represents intermediate performance on the path to sustainability.

Transition Elements

This activity has the following mitigation options modelled as transition elements:
