Devex published an article on the launch of the 2022 Global Food Policy Report which stated that food systems are “inseparably linked” to the climate change crisis and transforming — through both adaptation and mitigation — the way the world grows, transports, and eats its food. That will require a scale-up of investment for areas such as research and development and reappropriating agricultural subsidies. Environment and Production Technology division director Channing Arndt said, “We’ve obviously been concerned for a long time that it is going to get warmer and more uncertain in places where they already have difficulty producing enough food.
