To achieve the #SDGs, we need to utilise new technology in #foodsystems, while being sure to minimise unintended negative impacts👉New @TheLancetPlanet paper led by @CSIRO with PIKs @jrockstrom @prajdhan: bit.ly/2K203fA @WUR @IIASAVienna @ETH_en and many more experts
An alternative to the current linear Agrifood system paradigm is to develop productive systems that minimise external inputs, pollution and waste (as well as risk, dependency and costs) by adopting a circular metabolism.

Message from the Australian Ambassador for the Environment Mr. Jamie Isbister regarding the Resilience Initiative for food and agriculture.
#COVID19 is a shared crisis - it doesn't have borders. It is a reminder that many problems are best solved, or indeed can only be solved, through cooperation says @AusAmbEnviro Jamie Isbister for the joint @ACIARAustralia @CSIRO & @ourANU report launch ➡️ bit.ly/ACIAR2

Where there is conflict, there is hunger. And where there is hunger, there is often conflict.
The #NobelPeacePrize is an incredible recognition of WFP's work — saving lives in times of crisis and changing lives in times of peace.
