Report – Food Systems are Responsible for a Third of Global Anthropogenic GHG Emissions
Food needs to be farmed, harvested or caught, transported, processed, packaged, distributed and cooked, and the residuals disposed of. Each of these steps causes emissions of anthropogenic greenhouse gases (GHGs) and requires energy. Inputs such as fertilizers or energy need to be produced and made available at the right time and location with additional associated GHG emissions.
