Methane mitigation and nutrition security: achieving global sustainability requires both
Event description
To celebrate Earth Day, Food Systems for the Future, Food Tank and The Environmental Defense Fund are collaborating to host a webinar focusing on the food industry’s efforts to reduce methane emissions and how these cannot compromise access to affordable, nutritious food.
