Climate-resilient food: Bonn Climate Change Conference calls for holistic transformation of food systems

13 Jun 2023 — A new report launched at the ongoing Bonn, Germany, Climate Change Conference warns the world is running out of time to transform food systems and avoid catastrophic climate change effects. The report has been produced by a coalition of leading international food organizations and businesses and outlines the key actions for policymakers to take. 

It shows that food systems are responsible for up to 31% of global greenhouse gas emissions and that if nothing changes, they will push the planet beyond 1.5 degrees Celsius by mid-21st century.
