| description | The global agrifood system has been largely overlooked in the fight against climate change. Yet, greenhouse gas emissions from the agrifood system are so big that they alone could cause the world to miss the goal of keeping global average temperatures from rising above 1.5 centigrade compared to preindustrial levels. Greenhouse gas emissions from agrifood must be cut to net zero by 2050 to achieve this goal. Recipe for a Livable Planet: Achieving Net Zero Emissions in the Agrifood System offers the first comprehensive global strategic framework to mitigate the agrifood system’s contributions to climate change, detailing affordable and readily available measures that can cut nearly a third of the world’s planet heating emissions while ensuring global food security. These actions, which are urgently needed, offer three additional benefits: improving food supply reliability, strengthening the global food system’s resilience to climate change, and safeguarding vulnerable populations. This practical guide outlines global actions and specific steps that countries at all income levels can take starting now, focusing on six key areas: investments, incentives, information, innovation, institutions, and inclusion. Calling for collaboration among governments, businesses, citizens, and international organizations, it maps a pathway to making agrifood a significant contributor to addressing climate change and healing the planet. |

Le système agroalimentaire mondial a été le grand oublié dans la lutte contre le changement climatique. Pourtant, les émissions de gaz à effet de serre provenant du système agroalimentaire sont si importantes qu’elles pourraient à elles seules faire en sorte que le monde n’atteigne pas l’objectif d’empêcher les températures moyennes mondiales d’augmenter de plus de 1,5 centigrade par rapport aux niveaux préindustriels. Les émissions de gaz à effet de serre provenant du système agroalimentaire doivent être ramenées à un niveau zéro net à l’horizon 2050 pour que cet objectif soit atteint. Recette pour une planète vivable : Parvenir à zéro émissions nettes dans les systèmes agroalimentaires offre le premier cadre stratégique mondial complet pour atténuer les effets du système agroalimentaire sur le changement climatique, en présentant en détail des solutions abordables et facilement disponibles qui peuvent réduire de près d’un tiers les émissions à l’origine du réchauffement de la planète, tout en garantissant la sécurité alimentaire mondiale. Ces mesures, qu’il y a lieu de prendre de toute urgence, offrent trois avantages supplémentaires : l’amélioration de l’approvisionnement en denrées alimentaires, le renforcement de la capacité de résistance du système alimentaire mondial face aux changements climatiques, et la protection des populations vulnérables. Ce guide pratique présente des actions de portée mondiale et des mesures spécifiques que les pays, à tous les niveaux de revenus, peuvent prendre dès maintenant, en se concentrant sur six domaines essentiels : les investissements, les incitations, l’information, l’innovation, les institutions et l’inclusion. Appelant à la collaboration entre les gouvernements, les entreprises, les citoyens et les organisations internationales, il trace la voie à suivre pour que le secteur agroalimentaire soit un facteur important dans la lutte contre le changement climatique et la préservation de la planète. El sistema agroalimentario se ha pasado por alto en gran medida en cuanto a la lucha contra el cambio climático. Sin embargo, las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero del sistema agroalimentario son tan significativas que, por su cuenta, podrían impedir que el mundo cumpla la meta de evitar que las temperaturas globales promedio alcancen 1,5 grados centígrados por encima de los niveles preindustriales. Para lograr esta meta, las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero provenientes de la agroalimentación deben reducirse a cero emisiones netas para el año 2050. Receta para un planeta habitable: Cómo alcanzar cero emisiones netas en el sistema agroalimentario brinda el primer marco estratégico integral y global para mitigar la participación del sistema agroalimentario en el cambio climático y detalla medidas alcanzables y asequibles que pueden reducir un tercio de las emisiones que generan el calentamiento global, al tiempo que garantizan la seguridad alimentaria global. Estas medidas urgentemente necesarias ofrecen tres beneficios adicionales: mejorar la confiabilidad del suministro de alimentos, fortalecer la resiliencia del sistema alimentario mundial ante el cambio climático y salvaguardar a los grupos vulnerables. Esta guía práctica detalla las medidas globales y los pasos específicos que ya pueden comenzar a tomar los países de todo tipo de ingresos y que se enfocan en seis áreas clave: inversiones, incentivos, información, innovación, instituciones e inclusión. Se hace un llamado a la colaboración entre Gobiernos, empresas, ciudadanos y organizaciones internacionales, y se traza el camino para que la agroalimentación contribuya de manera significativa para enfrentar el cambio climático y sanar el planeta. 2024-04-24T11:34:00Z 2024-04-24T11:34:00Z 2024-09-20 Book 978-1-4648-2093-9 https://hdl.handle.net/10986/41468 10.1596/978-1-4648-2093-9 10.1596/41468 en_US Agriculture and Food Series CC BY 3.0 IGO https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf application/pdf Washington, DC: World Bank |
