Food is a problem. Food is a victim. And food is a solution. Powerful framing that puts food at the intersection of the climate crisis.

Another year closer to 2030, & we find in the #StateOfClimateAction 2022 that, once again, climate action across sectors accounting for ~85% of GHG emissions falls well short of what's needed to limit warming to 1.5°C. See what's needed to get on track: https://t.co/HlIRqVYeBv.
