We live in a world where food is messed around with. Itโs produced using harmful chemicals that damage our health, wildlife and the environment. Itโs packed in plastic and unnecessarily shipped around the world. Farmers donโt make a decent living, neither in Europe nor in the global south. Access to quality food and proper nutrition is not a reality for millions of vulnerable people in Europe and worldwide who are still fighting malnutrition and undernutrition. A lot of our energy comes from nutritionally worthless junk food and drinks. The average adult is three times more likely to be obese today compared to 1975 . The situation is even worse for undernourished mothers who cannot provide for their children and as studies show, the first 1000 days of a child are crucial for their development and any damage is irreversible. It is time to rethink how we grow, share and consume our food. If done right, agriculture, forestry and fisheries can provide safe and nutritious food for all and generate decent incomes, while supporting people-centred rural development and protecting the environment.

Factsheets
Fact 1: Investing in nutrition interventions is highly cost-effective and impactful: every $1 invested in nutrition generates a return of at least $16, and up to $35 for breastfeeding interventions. This brief factsheet (EN, SL)ย explains why undernutrition is unacceptable and what we can and must do about it.
Fact 3: Biodiversity and ecosystem services largely contribute to human well-beingย and development priorities, therefore they are central to Agenda 2030.
Fact 4: Healthy soils are key to biodiversity, food security and play a fundamentalย role in fighting climate change, thereby a prerequisite for the successfulย implementation of Agenda 2030.
Fact 5: Agriculture policy must limit GLOBAL WARMING.ย To limit global warming to 1.5ยฐC, theย agriculture sector needs a complete overhaul, in particular through a reduction in livestock production.
