The failure to tackle climate change threatens all aspects of food security: availability, access, utilization, and stability. The changing climate is already putting at risk the gains in the fight against hunger, and it looks set to worsen. It threatens the production and distribution of food. It threatens people’s ability to access food by undermining their livelihoods and destabilizing prices.

This briefing explores how these impacts can be averted through urgent action to avoid dangerous climate change, to address our broken food system, and to strengthen its resilience.
