On @COP28_UAE “Food Day” it’s essential we get clarity on what we mean by “regenerative” food production and why we need it. Deep (not shallow) regen = benefits for people+planet 👩🏽🌾🌍 foodtank.com/news/2023/12/op… via @foodtank – at Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Up or down? Is the % of climate finance to food increasing or decreasing? The (sobering) answer and some thoughts as we reflect on COP29 and look to 2025 and all things Brazil in my latest blog. 👇
