This presentation is a country case study of Uruguay by Walter Oyhantçabal
Increasing the storage of carbon in the soil has been a controversial strategy for addressing climate change mitigation. What is the potential and why is there debate about this? How can we push beyond the debate to constructive action?
Lini Wollenberg, a Gund Fellow, is an anthropologist and natural resource management specialist concerned with rural livelihoods and the environment. She currently leads a research program on Low Emissions Agricultural Development for the CGIAR Research Program on Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS), based at the University of Vermont. Her work seeks to identify options for reducing the impacts of agricultural development and land use on the climate, while also improving livelihoods for the poor in developing countries.

Water is critical for meeting commitments of the Paris Agreement and achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Our economies rely on water, with recent estimates putting the economic value of water and freshwater ecosystems at USD 58 trillion - equivalent to 60% of global GDP. At the same time, water related risks are increasing in frequency and scale in the context of climate change.
How are investments shaping our economies and societies exposure to water risk? What role can the financial system play in supporting water security? And how can increased understanding of how finance both impacts and depends on water resources spur action towards greater water security?
This OECD Green Talks LIVE on Tuesday 14 May 2024 from 15:00 to 16:00 CEST discussed the evolving landscape for assessing water risks to the financial system.
OECD Policy Analyst Lylah Davies presented key findings and recommendations from recent OECD work on assessing the financial materiality of water-related risks, including the recently published paper “Watered down? Investigating the financial materiality of water-related risks” and was joined by experts to discuss relevant initiatives underway.

The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.

3.2 Agricultural Productivity, Climate Mitigation and Biodiversity: The Example of Agro-Ecology In France - Aline Boy
1. Agricultural productivity, climate
mitigation and biodiversity – the
example of agro-ecology in France
Biodiversity, Climate Change and
Agriculture: Towards Coherent
Approaches
25th October 2017 – OECD
Aline Boy – French ministry of
agriculture and food
2. A strong need for a coherent approach
●For a long time, mainly sectoral policies
●Common agricultural policies : grain, cattle production
●From direct support measures
●Change in EU context: environmental regulations, CAP
●Growing economic, environmental, social challenges
●Necessary change of approach : strengthen a cross-cutting
approach of the entire farm system = systemic approach
●→ Need for policies that support transition and
encourage sustainable productive agricultural systems
3. Limiting trade-offs through clear Ministry mandates
and responsabilities in the policy making
●Climate, environment policies :
→Min. of Ecology, with a strong involvement of the Min. Agriculture
●Much joint work,
→ interministerial arbitration under the Prime Minister when necessary
●Specific policies launched by the Min.
of Agriculture :
→ implementation of the EU Common
Agricultural Policy reform,
agricultural transition
4. Agroecology as a clear major goal French
agricultural policy
Agroecology in the very first article of a new law :
Law for the future of Agriculture, Agrifood & Forest (Oct 2014)
●Art 1 : Definition :
« Public policies will promote agroecological
production systems, that combine
economical, social, environmental and
sanitary performances. (...)
They contribute to climate change
mitigation and adaptation ».
5. The French agroecological project: designed as
a cross-cutting policy
●Combining economic, environmental performance, and social aspects
●Systemic approach : efficiency (inputs), substitution (change crop
varieties), reconception (crop rotation, agroforestry)
●Supports biodiversity and biological regulations (agroforestry, hedgerows,
diversified crop rotation...)
●Reduces inputs (feed, fertilizers, pesticides...) and increases autonomy
(livestock effluents, renewable energy)
●Closes N and C cycles (livestock-crops synergies, carbon storage in
grassland and biomass...)
●Contribution to mitigation and adaptation to climate change
5
6. Agroecology policy designed to tackle synergies
in institutions
●Interministerial:
●Contribution to the National Low Carbon Strategy
●Revision of the National Plan for climate change adaptation
●Law for the Recovery of Biodiversity, Nature and Landscapes
●Ministry of agriculture:
●Actions defined with the main stakeholders like training, development,
subsidies...
●10 thematic action plans (Agroforestry, changes in seed evaluation,
Ecophyto (to reduce use of pesticides), Ecoantibio...)
●Guideline for the regional authorities:
●Regional development of the agroecology project by the local authorities
7. Agroecology for the synergies in agricultural
development
●Creation of local dynamics for innovation
