Agri-food GHG emissions remain stubborn, agriculture is the leading cause of global deforestation, and the food system is the primary driver of global biodiversity loss.BUT agriculture can also act as a carbon sink, provide biodiversity and ecosystem services, support First Nations food sovereignty, and even contribute to the energy transition – all while feeding over 8 billion people.This Canadian Climate Week event brings together the worlds of climate and agri-food to share the opportunities — and challenges — of agri-food in the age of climate change.This is a hybrid event, with the option to register for an online or in-person ticket. Online regsitrants will receive a link to join the day before the event.SpeakersEvent speakers include Mary Dimou (Nàdarra Ventures), Richard Florizone (Clean Economy Fund), Ibrahim Mohammed (Grain Farmers of Ontario), Brenda Hsueh (Farmers for Climate Solutions), Amber Kivisto (BioNorth Solutions), Iain Klugman (NorthGuide) plus Evan Fraser (AFI) and others.About AFIArrell Food Institute (AFI) seeks to improve global food systems by informing policy, convening conversations and bridging research, education, and community engagement.
