We are not looking to keep going in what we are doing but to reduce. The key point is that we have targets we have to meet in the coming five years and in the five years after that. We have then got quite a leap to go to from 2030 to 2050. We will need any additional savings we can make in the period 2030 to 2050, but we will really have to do everything. We cannot rely on any future technologies. Does Mr. Dolan have any comments on the soil health issues and a future soils directive?
