− | * | + | *"While previous studies have looked at the contribution of agriculture to emissions, ''Climate Change and Food Systems'' assesses the entire food system's emissions "footprint" -- in total somewhere between a fifth and third of the greenhouse gases emitted by people on this planet. This figure accounts for every aspect of food production and distribution -- including growing crops and raising livestock, manufacturing fertilizer, and storing, transporting and refrigerating food. Agriculture accounts for around 80 percent of these emissions, but the combined contribution of transport, refrigeration, consumer practices and waste management is growing."<br/> |
