Food and Climate Country Spotlight: China
Sally Qiu, Hörn Halldórudóttir Heiðarsdóttir, Carolyne Barker, and Kevin Karl (2022)
The Food and Climate Country Spotlights are a collection of summary briefs that provide a systematic overview of food-related activities in different countries and those activities’ connection with climate change. Guided by FCP’s “double-helix” approach, the Country Spotlights combine data-driven research and policy analysis.
Food and Climate Change Infoguide
David Sandalow, et al. (2021)
This InfoGuide provides background on the food system (Part 1), climate change (Part 2), the impact of the food system on climate change (Part 3) and the impact of climate change on the food system (Part 4). The final section (Part 5) presents strategies for reducing emissions from the food system and improving the resilience of the food system to climate change.
