An Australian farmer has called on the government to adopt a constructive and positive approach to environmental issues, warning that oversimplified methods could come with consequences and won’t address the complexity of the problems on the ground.

Mark Davie, chair of the industry group Beef Sustainability Australia, told The Epoch Times that society and science should find a solution that balances carbon emissions reduction targets and the need to maintain food production for a growing global population.
