Event description

Food is a critically underserved climate problem. While it contributes up to 34% of global greenhouse gas emissions and is a leading cause of deforestation, biodiversity loss, and soil degradation, food systems receive significantly less attention and funding compared to other climate sectors. Join our upcoming webinar, featuring a presentation by Henrik Bennetsen, a serial entrepreneur and co-founder of FoodxClimate on how this neglect jeopardizes climate goals and undermines global food security, which has direct implications for national security and societal stability. His presentation will be followed by an audience Q&A.
