No significant progress is expected in the areas of agriculture and food security at the COP29 World Climate Conference in Baku, which began yesterday. This forecast was made by the non-governmental organization Germanwatch in its briefing „Food systems at COP29“. It states that the potential of both sectors for climate action is still not being sufficiently taken into account. Furthermore, a global target for reducing greenhouse gas emissions is missing.
