Food systems, food security and environmental changeIIED
This is a presentation given by Dr John Ingram of Oxford University's Environmental Change Institute (ECI) to a Critical Theme organised by the International Institute for Environment and Development on 12 February 2015.
Dr Ingram leads the Environmental Change Institute's Food Systems Research and Training Programme, which aims to increase understanding of the interactions between food security and environmental change. The programme's research products have been adopted by national and international organisations, including the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), and the UK and Dutch governments.
In his presentation, Ingram looked at food system activities and 'planetary boundaries' – the safe operating space for humanity with respect to the earth's biophysical systems. If these planetary boundaries are crossed, then important subsystems, such as a monsoon system, could shift into a new state. Such shifts could have damaging consequences, including undermining the environmental conditions and the natural resource base on which our food security depends.
IIED hosts Critical Themes meetings to explore new ideas, introduce new research and broaden the knowledge of its staff.

A lecture in Quantitative Sustainability
It is often claimed that agricultural productivity needs to be increased in order to feed a growing world population. Food security depends on several factors besides the productivity, including waste/efficiency, energy crops, meat consumption, and global justice and equity. This lecture explores the issue of food security in its many dimensions and teaches how to use a high-level systems approach in sustainability science.

Food is life and the global food sustainability is essential to human being survival. The global food system is highly
complex and is driven by various factors including environment, cultural, social and economic drive. It is vital to understand
these drivers and their interaction in order to help to improve the public food sustainability policies. Global polices and projects
desperately required in order improving the global food sustainability. Food sustainability is one of the unsolved global issues
and great commitment is required starting from global policy makers, national governments, and every individual home. This
research paper includes analysis and study of various elements such as global change science, policy, food crisis, factor affecting
and challenging food security, data on status and future projection and potential ways of solving problems. The goal of food
sustainability is to enable all people throughout the world to satisfy their basic needs and have a reasonable quality of life without
compromising the quality of life of future generations. Agriculture sustainability is the best solution which can feed the world
without compromising the environment or threatening human health. Scientific evidence that global environment has changed
is overwhelming and indisputable. These phenomena have a direct impact on agriculture which in turn affects food
sustainability. The food price is always toward upward trend which is validated by the periodic average global food price
monitoring report released by the Food and agricultural organizations. The factors affecting and challenging the food security
are many including increased food consumption due to population increase, uneven distribution, changes in living styles, limited
resources, environmental problems, economic problems and others. The potential ways to solve food sustainability need to be
established and implemented effectively across the world.

By 2050 the world’s population will reach 9.1 billion, 34 percent higher than today. Nearly all of this population increase will occur in developing countries. Urbanization will continue at an accelerated pace, and about 70 percent of the world’s population will be urban (compared to 49 percent today). Income levels will be many multiples of what they are now. In order to feed this larger, more urban and richer population, food production (net of food used for biofuels) must increase by 70 percent.
Annual cereal production will need to rise to about 3 billion tonnes from 2.1 billion today and annual meat production will need to rise by over 200 million tonnes to reach 470 million tonnes. This report argues that the required increase in food production can be achieved if the necessary investment is undertaken and policies conducive to agricultural production are put in place.
But increasing production is not sufficient to achieve food security. It must be complemented by policies to enhance access by fighting poverty, especially in rural areas, as well as effective safety net programmes. Total average annual net investment in developing country agriculture required to deliver the necessary production increases would amount to USD 83 billion. The global gap in what is required vis-à-vis current investment levels can be illustrated by comparing the required annual gross investment of US$209 billion (which includes the cost of renewing depreciating investments) with the result of a separate study that estimated that developing countries on average invested USD 142 billion (USD of 2009) annually in agriculture over the past decade.
The required increase is thus about 50 percent. These figures are totals for public and private investment, i.e. investments by farmers. Achieving them will require a major reallocation in developing country budgets as well as in donor programmes. It will also require policies that support farmers in developing countries and encourage them and other private participants in agriculture to increase their investment. In developing countries, 80 percent of the necessary production increases would come from increases in yields and cropping intensity and only 20 percent from expansion of arable land.
But the fact is that globally the rate of growth in yields of the major cereal crops has been steadily declining, it dropped from 3.2 percent per year in 1960 to 1.5 percent in 2000. The challenge for technology is to reverse this decline, since a continuous linear increase in yields at a global level following the pattern established over the past five decades will not be sufficient to meet food needs. Although investment in agricultural R&D continues to be one of the most productive investments, with rates of return between 30 and 75 percent, it has been neglected in most low income countries.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
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.

2. What is food security?
More than just ensuring there will be
food to eat tomorrow.
Food security includes:
Availability - is there enough for
everyone?
Access – can it be reached efficiently?
Affordability: can it bought at a price that
is reasonable?
Quality: is it edible?
Nutrition: is the food part of a balanced
diet?
Safety: could the food harm health?
“When all people at all
times have access to
sufficient, safe, nutritious
food to maintain a healthy
and active life”.
World Food Summit 1996
3. There is enough food in the world to feed everyone
adequately, the problem is its distribution.
4. Food security is built on
three pillars:
Food availability
Food access
Food use
Pillars
5. Why is food security a problem?
Increasing population
Changing diets
Reduced arable land
Transport costs
Climate change
6. So should we just grow more food?
New technologies cannot solve the problem alone.
Political negotiation for some market barriers to be
removed.
Technology needs to be introduced at the correct
pace.
Need to manage environmental impacts.
7. Climate Change and Food Security
Bad:
Increased deserts
Increased drought
Increased insects.
Damaged ecosystems.
Good:
Increased CO2 will lead
to more plants fixing
carbon which has the
potential to increase
yields.
Make some areas more
suitable for agriculture.
The pace of change is vitally important.
8. What future trends affect food
security?
Population
The world’s population is predicted
to reach 9Bn by 2050, 90% of which
will occur in the developing world
where water is already scarce.
As a country’s GDP increases, so does
its population’s total calorific intake
(and taste for meat).
70% of the world’s population will live
in urban areas by 2050 – compared to
50% now
9. What future trends affect food
security?
Production and Consumption
Britain is likely to become less self-sufficient
in food production. The UK
is 73% self-sufficient in indigenous-type
foods and 60% self-sufficient in all
food – meaning that in 2009 40% of all
food is imported
The World Bank estimates that cereal
production needs to increase by 50%
(from 2.1 to 3 billion tonnes) and meat
production by 85% (to reach 470M
tonnes) between 2000 and 2030 to
meet demand
10. What future trends affect food
Investment
security?
Increase in total average annual net
investment in developing country
agriculture required to deliver the
necessary production increases
amounts to $82 billion.
Many countries will continue to rely
on international trade to ensure their
food security. It is estimated that by
2050 developing countries’ net
imports of cereals will more than
double from 135M tonnes in 2008/09
to 300M tonnes by 2050
11. What future trends affect food
security?
Environment
The negative impact of climate
change on agricultural impact in
Africa could be 15-30% up to 2080-
2100.
Biofuel production using
agricultural commodities will
continue to increase. Biofuel
production based on agricultural
commodities increased more than
threefold from 2000-08
12. What future trends affect food
security?
Water
¾ world’s water consumption is used for irrigation and
agriculture.
UN predicts irrigation demands will increase 50-100% by
2025.
Political disagreements over water may lead to military
conflicts – 145 countries share lakes and river basins.
Mekong Delta (China plans 8 dams that will divert water
from Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam
Zambesi basin supports 32M people across 8 countries.
The population is growing, but precipitation is expected
to decrease 15% by 2050
13. On the global agenda
“Approximately 842m people today are estimated to be
experiencing chronic hunger, down from 868m a year ago—an
almost 3% decline.”

14. On the global agenda
“The hunger target of the Millennium Development Goal 1c
(MDG 1c) – of halving the proportion of undernourished
people in developing countries by 2015 – is within reach.”
“Hunger reduction requires an integrated approach, which
would include: public and private investments to raise
agricultural productivity; better access to inputs, land,
services, technologies and markets; measures to promote
rural development; social protection for the most vulnerable,
including strengthening their resilience to conflicts and
natural disasters; and specific nutrition programmes,
especially to address micronutrient deficiencies in mothers
and children under five.”
15. On the global agenda
We can feed the world but only if :
Tackle the interconnected challenges the world faces: food price
increases, chronic hunger, a growing population and climate change.
Accept that agricultural development is the best route to achieving
sustainable economic growth in developing countries
Aim to achieve an agriculture that is highly productive, stable,
resilient and equitable.
The four routes to achieving a food secure world are:
Innovation, including a wide variety of technologies, where
appropriate
Markets, that are fair and efficient
People, who are central to driving and delivering agricultural
development
Political leadership
16. In your team:
You need to find as many strategies for addressing food
security as possible.
This could be suggestions for a change at the global scale to a
small scale farming project in a village.
The aim is to try and identify strategies for each continent at
different spatial scales.
For each strategy you must state where you found the
information.
You have 30 minutes.
