Agriculture is responsible for a significant portion of global emissions, ranging from 26% to 33%. To achieve net zero emissions, agriculture must be a central part of the solution. However, with a growing population of over 8 billion people, emissions from the food system alone are projected to cause half a degree of warming by mid-century. This could result in 600 million people not having enough food in a two-degree future. We cannot warm the planet and expect to feed it simultaneously. To maintain a 1.5-degree limit, we must reduce emissions from the food system. Scientists, based on physics, mathematics, biology, and chemistry, have warned us about the consequences of exceeding this limit, which are already becoming evident and surpassing previous predictions.
