COP 28 and the rise of agriculture and food on the global climate change agenda

Agriculture and food systems have taken center stage at COP 28, marking a significant shift in how the global community addresses climate change. For the first time, agriculture was prominently featured on the climate agenda, recognizing its critical role in both contributing to and solving the climate crisis. The discussions at COP 28 highlighted the need for sustainable farming practices, regenerative agriculture, and innovative technologies that can help reduce agriculture's carbon footprint while increasing food security.
