Global food system absent from Paris Agreement
The global food system -- the processes and infrastructure to feed populations -- is one of the main drivers of climate change. Yet the issue is hardly talked about at the climate summits that governments hold every year. Why? This Alliance content is part of the Alliance + IssueLab Special Collection.
Explore research on the issue of agriculture and food produced by social sector organizations concerned with the development and improvement of food resources and the natural, commercial, and industrial systems that produce them. Topics include sustainable agriculture, livestock, poultry management, sustainable fisheries, regulation of the fishing industry, the “farm to table” movement and more.
