If you own the seeds you own the food system
If you own the seeds you own the food system. Access to open-pollinated seeds is the cornerstone of food citizenship because it creates non-market access to growing.- agriculture

Acting on the food sector to slow the climate crisis
The use of land brings a fragmentation of habitats and a loss of biodiversity that tends to increase the possibility of contact with animal species capable of transmitting viruses to which humans are not accustomed. The climate and health emergencies may seem like separate crises, but this is not the case.- agriculture

Global leaders meet virtually at the Climate Ambition Summit
The UN chief said economic recovery packages launched in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic represented an opportunity to accelerate the transition to a low-carbon future — but warned so much more needs to be done to ward off catastrophic consequences. So far, the members of the G20 are spending 50% more in their stimulus and rescue packages on sectors linked to fossil fuel production and consumption, than on low-carbon energy.- agriculture
