- 17. Tackling the threat from climate change requires a technology+ approach • Technology plus conservation plus community action • Region specific approaches for tackling climate change have been proposed mostly in the energy sector, but not so much for reducing emissions from the agriculture sector • National policies for climate change adaptation are yet to take shape- much of the focus continues to remain on mitigation • There has been very little private sector participation in these efforts, though consumer awareness is growing
- 18. SDG 2 success also depends on the achieving other SDGs SDG 2: Zero Hunger Ending Poverty Increasing Environmental Quality Improving Health Goal 1: No poverty Goal 8: Decent work and economic growth Increasing Equality Goal 3: Good health and wellbeing Goal 5: Gender equality Goal 10: Reduce inequality within and among countries Goal 12: Responsible production and consumption Goal 13: Climate action Goal 14 & 15: Life in Water & Land
- 19. • Ending hunger: possible for caloric adequacy but uncertain for access to food diversity, especially micro-nutrient rich food. • Ending all forms of malnutrition: declines in the incidence of child stunting & wasting, but new challenges with obesity. • Double small farm productivity through sustainable production systems: possible where technology adaptation to smaller scale production is made available and it is possible to orient farmers towards crop diversification opportunities. • Adaptation to climate change: unlikely unless coordinated efforts are made to preserve and enhance natural resources. • Sustainable Production Systems: Regional efforts to conserve technology, resources and plant diversity and create equitable solutions for small holders Prospects for Achieving SDG 2
