Introduction
Food fuels our bodies and plays a powerful role in human health, culture, productivity and potential. It is central to livelihoods and creates connection to family, community and natural ecosystems on land and in water.
The food system, however, is also contributing to pressing global challenges. It contributes to approximately 25% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, three-quarters of biodiversity loss and is a leading cause of non-communicable disease. These add to societal cost burdens through health care, growth stunting and malnutrition. Our vision is for a food system that addresses these challenges and meets societal needs by 2050 for a regenerative and equitable food system producing healthy, safe and nutritious food for all.
