Climate change, Agriculture, Livestock sector and Hunger
Livestock sector is highly vulnerable to climate change and at the same time it contributes about 14 percent of the greenhouse gases. In futuristic time reference, food especially animal protein is becoming high in demand and such we much think a better way of producing safe food while reducing its environmental impacts. Climate change is already affecting agriculture production and food security. Without urgent action millions more people will suffer hunger and poverty. We need to think about the resilience of agriculture system. We need to have a system that can cope with climate by planting more trees.
To achieve Zero Hunger by 2030, we must accelerate and scale up actions that strengthen the resilience and adaptive capacity of food systems and people’s livelihoods in response to climate impacts. Agriculture and Livestock can be transformed to help stay below 1.5 degrees Celsius of global warming.
Climate change impacts are very direct livestock sector. This reduces food systems, hence reducing the efforts of having zero hunger
