Roughly one-third of greenhouse gas emissions come from the food system. The food system and energy system are deeply intertwined, with energy inputs playing a central role in food production, distribution, processing, preparation, and disposal. Following the April 22 Leaders Summit on Climate, the Center on Global Energy Policy will host a dialogue on reducing greenhouse gas emissions from the food system while promoting public health, rural livelihoods, and other important goals.
