I thank the witnesses for coming in. Mr. Hourigan said that basically a cow eats ten or 11 tonnes of grass and that a certain amount of that has carbon in it and a certain amount goes out through the milk. He talked about the methane and stabilising numbers. Does Professor Allen agree with Mr. Hourigan’s analysis? I saw something in the media yesterday and I note Professor Allen talked about 3% over ten years. What are his solutions? Can he share some of his in-depth knowledge? Was he on the panel on climate science and what was he doing?
