The Challenge
• Climate change will worsen the living conditions of farmers, fishers and forest-dependent people who are already vulnerable and food insecure.
• Hunger and malnutrition will increase. • Rural communities ... face an immediate and
ever-growing risk of increased crop failure (and) loss of livestock ...
• Poor people will be at risk of food insecurity ...
