Check out our new paper published in @Nature: “Supply chain diversity buffers cities against food shocks”.
We find that cities with diverse food supply chains are better prepared to withstand the impacts of different types of shocks.

When the pandemic lockdowns began, prices spiked as goods became scarce. Many people blamed complex, #globalized supply chains for the issue. But a recent study suggests that complex #supplychains may actually protect economies from shortages under stress. https://t.co/Sq5ug8Xgdu
Come and say hello! I will be online showing my poster “Supply Shocks in the Global Food trade Network” at #AGU21 from 4-6 pm. Our poster discusses the following question: How do supply shocks vary in frequency and intensity across food products and countries?
Online or in person – don't miss our #AGU21 session on climate change and agriculture today at 8 am CT. Impressive round of speakers including @jessfanzo, Toshi Hasegawa, @AlexRuane, Jon Proctor, @AlanRobock and many more. See you there!
Excited to be presenting our work on the resilience of urban food supply chains in #AGU21 tomorrow. Details below:
Session: Global Environmental Change 41B (GC41B)
When: Thursday Dec, 16 at 9:15-9:20AM (EST).
Where: Room 206-207 / online

People are buying MUCH more food than every before. Purchases for off-premises consumption (e.g., supermarkets) are 8% above trend while food services (e.g., restaurants) are very close to trend.
These numbers are adjusted for inflation so a real increase in quantity or quality.
I'm happy to share that our paper has been included in Nature's Research Collection in support of the 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties.
