  1. The Path to The Path to Climate Climate Neutrality Neutrality

  2. But why?

  3. Global Warming Potential (GWP Global Warming Potential (GWP 100 ) of ) of 100 Main Greenhouse Gases Main Greenhouse Gases Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) 1 Methane (CH 4 ) 28 Nitrous Oxide (N 2 O) 265

  4. Half Half-Life of Main Life of Main Greenhouse Gases in Years Greenhouse Gases in Years Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) 1,000 Methane (CH 4 ) 10 Nitrous Oxide (N 2 O) 110

  5. If herd sizes do If herd sizes do not increase for not increase for 10 years, then 10 years, then additional additional methane is not methane is not added to the added to the atmosphere. atmosphere.

  10. How do we do it?

  11. Since 2015 California dairies have reduced 2.2 million 2.2 million metric tons metric tons of greenhouse gases

  12. That’s a 25 percent 25 percent reduction in GHG emissions.
