🌍 Climate change is reshaping how we grow, access, and consume food. Rising temperatures are affecting crop yields, livestock productivity, and food security, placing increasing pressure on communities and food systems.

This #WorldEnvironmentDay, @terieiacp23 highlights the need for climate-resilient and sustainable food systems that can withstand climate impacts while ensuring food security for all.

Heat is not just a weather issue—it is a food, health, and equity issue.
Let us come together to:
✔ Protect trees and ecosystems
✔ Support climate-resilient agriculture
✔ Conserve water and resources
✔ Adopt sustainable lifestyles
✔ Reduce food waste
✔ Choose local and seasonal food

🌱 Every action counts towards a more resilient future.

The discussion explored net-zero pathways for India, Türkiye, Germany, and the EU. Dr Kedia highlighted the importance of equity, energy access, and sustainable development in shaping energy transitions, while emphasizing the need for climate finance, technology cooperation, and capacity building.

She also underscored the disparities in global energy consumption, noting that India's per capita energy use (866 watts) remains significantly lower than that of upper-middle-income (3,423 watts) and high-income economies (6,330 watts), reinforcing the importance of development-compatible and equitable climate pathways.
