Food systems account for over one-third of greenhouse gas emissions. Food production is significantly affected by climate change, with extreme weather impacting harvests among other impacts. At the same time, food systems are a crucial part of the solution. By changing how and what we produce, we can significantly reduce global emissions and keep global warming below 1.5°C.
