In a warming world, agriculture must be at the heart of climate and clean air action
April 30, 2025 | The United Nations |
The Climate and Clean Air Conference in Brazil emphasized agriculture's crucial role in reducing short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) such as methane, black carbon, and nitrous oxide—potent drivers of global warming and air pollution. The agrifood sector, heavily impacted by climate extremes and pollution, holds solutions through sustainable practices like improved livestock management, innovative crop residue use, and targeted fertilizer application. Coordinated international action, increased climate finance, and supportive policies are essential to leverage agriculture's potential, safeguarding food security and ecosystem health globally, ahead of COP30 in November 2025.
