Global food crisis worsened by climate change threatens one-sixth of humanity.

Agroecology

The global food system is facing a crisis due to climate change, loss of agrobiodiversity, and food insecurity. Corporate control of the food supply and destruction of local food systems are major causes. Small-scale sustainable agriculture can help address these issues. Measures like promoting local food systems and sustainable farming practices can lead to a more just, resilient, and sustainable food system.
