Om den här e-boken

Climate and Hunger argues that climate change, expressed through intensifying erratic weather patterns, is a major driver of the global food crisis, disproportionately affecting vulnerable populations and threatening food systems.
The book explores the intricate relationship between climate variability and food security, highlighting how climate change acts as a 'threat multiplier,' exacerbating pre-existing vulnerabilities.
It builds upon decades of research, drawing from sources like IPCC reports and FAO data, to show how climate change is impacting agricultural yields, disrupting supply chains, and driving up food prices.
The book meticulously examines the impact of specific climate events on crop production, livestock farming, and fisheries, using quantitative data, statistical modeling, and qualitative insights.
Understanding the science behind climate change is paramount, as is grasping the multi-faceted dimensions of food security, including availability, access, utilization, and stability.
The book's approach bridges environmental science and social justice, connecting climate science with economics and policy considerations.

Structured to provide a comprehensive understanding, the book begins with an overview of climate science and food security fundamentals.
It then examines the specific impacts of climate change on various aspects of food production.
Later sections analyze the socio-economic consequences of climate-induced food shortages and concludes with an exploration of potential adaptation and mitigation strategies, examining both technological innovations and policy interventions to build resilience in food systems, ultimately informing readers to advocate for sustainable solutions.
