Livestock and sustainability in a changing
climate: Impacts and global best practices

Three key issues
1. Livestock emissions rising by ca. 1% p.a. – how
can livestock contribute to net zero?
2. How can ADB support low-emission livestock
transitions?
3. How to address the trade-offs that will
inevitably arise?

Livestock towards net zero
IPCC: to achieve the 1.5°C target, global net GHG emissions
will have to decline by 45% from 2010 levels by 2030 and reach
net zero around 2050
1. Reduce emission
intensity
2. Reduce emissions
3. Reduce
demand
4. Increase carbon sequestration

4.
How can ADB support transitions?
• Promote good practices (increasing productivity，
reducing emissions, sequestering carbon)
• Support development of long-term strategies
• Promote market development for meat substitutes,
and mitigation technologies

Addressing trade-offs
Clearly identify
positive and
negative effects
of proposed
interventions
Identify
mitigation
measures to
minimize
adverse effects
and trade-offs
Consider how to
address trade-
offs at project,

portfolio levels
