Tackling the climate-nature nexus

Detalles

Livestock production contributes significantly to the world going beyond the safe operating space of planetary boundaries. The negative feedback loops of exceeding planetary boundaries have already resulted in a number of material environmental and financial impacts for the livestock sector and the agri-food value chain.

According to the Food and Land Use Coalition's (FOLU) Global Consultation Report published in 2018, climate-related food system risks were valued at around USD 1.5 trillion, and this figure is even higher for nature at USD 1.7 trillion.

Livestock production contributes significantly to these risks, and the impacts are compounded by the interconnectedness between climate and nature. Understanding the nature of this interconnectedness is critical when designing sustainability strategies and transition plans for climate and nature.
