A big part of environmental degradation in the form of adverse climate change is also attributable to food systems. What we eat, what we waste and what we demand for, also drives the climate change process. In fact, a looming question is how will food systems nutritiously and sustainably feed 8.5 billion people by 2030? Our fragmented health systems are not in the best shape so far; these challenges will thus only add to their burden. Responsive and responsible leadership is urgently sought from all sectors to secure inclusive, sustainable, efficient, nutritious and resilient food systems.
