The challenges presented by climate change are clear and considerable.
* Extreme weather is exposing millions of people to food and water scarcity, especially in the global south
* Plants and animal species are experiencing changes in their ranges, seasonal patterns and habitats
* Economies are greatly affected
Agriculture can play a key role in mitigating and adapting to the climate threat, thereby underpinning sustainable food systems. Sustainable farming should be a profitable business that creates mutually beneficial relationships among workers and the surrounding community, and contributes to the sound use of land and other natural resources.
