Kommentar/Beschreibung

Course contents:
Reducing GHG emissions is paramount to combat climate change globally. Grassland-based livestock systems contribute to climate change but are also affected by it, which means that livestock in these systems can be part of the solution. This sub-module is designed to provide participants with an introduction to the topic of GHG emissions from livestock in grassland-based systems. Key international climate conventions (e.g., the Paris Agreement) and other international commitments envisaged to combat climate change will be discussed. We will explore both qualitative and quantitative aspects needed for understanding, quantifying and mitigating GHG emissions from grassland-based livestock systems. The sub-module will also present different policies and measures (e.g., carbon credits and tax incentives) that can be considered to support a decrease in GHG emissions from livestock in grassland-based systems.
The lectures for each sub-module are given by researchers from FB11 at Uni Kassel and invited speakers. In the seminar part, students give a presentation on a topic from this course. Guest lecturers from international research institutions and the private sector will be invited for both sub-modules. Learning outcome, core skills:
By taking this course, you will:
* understand the basics of greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions and climate change in the global agricultural landscape
* become familiar with key international climate conventions and agreements, as well as their backgrounds
* know the different emission sources and understand how different livestock management practices influence emissions in grassland-based systems
* get acquainted with the methodological approaches used for collecting data for indirect GHG emission estimates for grassland-based livestock systems
* perform hands-on calculations of GHG emissions based on case studies
* become familiar with policies and measures for decreasing emissions


Lecture slides will be provided for each lecture alongside further literature for self-study.

Examination: Presentation (20 mins per group, 60%), written exam (45 minutes, 40%)

Additional notes and regulations:
This 3-credits module is offered as a complement to the 3-credits Module “Livestock and Biodiversity in agricultural Landscapes” (Prof. Isselstein, Univ. Göttingen) that takes place in the winter semester, or, alternatively, as a complement to the 3-credits Module “Feed quality, animal performance and product quality in grassland-based livestock systems” (Prof. Klevenhusen, Univ. Kassel-Witzenhausen)
