Carbon Counting

How much does the carbon footprint of a Cumbrian family farm contribute to climate change? Caz Graham and carbon-counting expert, Mike Berners-Lee visit Will Case's Ulverston farm.

Will Case, like many farmers, is worried about climate change and uncomfortable about reports that farming is a key contributor to it. He wonders where his family farm which produces beef, salt marsh lamb, free-range eggs and milk on the edge of Morecambe Bay near Ulverston in Cumbria fits into the bigger picture of global heating. Caz Graham takes Mike Berners-Lee, a leading expert in carbon foot-printing to meet Will, look at his farm鈥檚 carbon footprint and discuss where UK farming sits in the context of global agriculture and climate change.
