UNEP proposes a global initiative to kick-start a carbon-neutral and nature-positive agriculture and food sector. It would reduce emissions from the food sector, store carbon in plants and soil, and make farmers more resilient by adapting food systems to changing climate conditions. The initiative would also benefit biodiversity, the availability of freshwater and the conditions of coastal waters by reducing runoff nutrients.
