Climate changes affects food systems, and food systems also contribute significantly to climate change. Reduced food system emissions are crucial to any mitigation attempt since, according to recent estimates, they account for more than a third of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions causing climate change. Furthermore, via the establishment and preservation of carbon sinks in forests, seas, and soils, agriculture, forestry and other land use (AFOLU) is now the only sector with significant potential to become a net emissions sink, or an entity that removes more greenhouse gases from the environment than it produces.
