Increased funding was pledged for climate adaptation at COP27, but it is still nowhere near what is required and is being carried out in silos, Anushiya J and Indu K Murthy from the Center for Study of Science, Technology, and Policy (CSTEP), India, write in an op-ed published by The Third Pole.
“This year, the International Food Policy Research Institute warned that climate change may push many Indians into hunger by 2030 due to a decline in agricultural production and disruption in the food supply chain.” – write the authors, referring to the 2022 IFPRI’s Global Food Policy Report: Climate Change and Food Systems.
