Chapter 1 in 2022 Global food policy report: Climate change and food systems, 2022, pp 6-15 from International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI)

Abstract: Climate change is a growing threat to our food systems, with grim implications for food and nutrition security, livelihoods, and overall well-being, especially for poor and vulnerable people around the world. The imperative for urgent action on climate change — both to achieve the major emissions reductions needed to limit global warming and to increase adaptive capacity and resilience of food systems — is drawing global attention.
