To meet the increasing demand froma growing population, we will needto produce more food in the next40 years than has been produced inthe previous 8,000 years.

What can we expect?
• Changing rainfall and weather patterns• Sea level rise• Loss of habitat• Loss of biodiversity• Increasing extreme weather • Migration
![Page 33: Going Green: Carbon reduction through nature CaRe-Lands Cluster event June, 25th 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815c5f550346895dca685f/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
What is the impact?
• Growing global demand for food production• Requirement for renewable energy• Shorter supply chains• Africa as the world’s bread basket?• Massive urban growth
![Page 34: Going Green: Carbon reduction through nature CaRe-Lands Cluster event June, 25th 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815c5f550346895dca685f/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
• Crops bad, trees good? Need to understand the science
• Cities bad, countryside good? – can’t be competition – Costa Rica
• Land use change on it’s own insufficient - ‘Reducing emissions in the land use sector cannot compensate for a lack of reduction in industrial emissions.’
It’s not as simple as we might think
![Page 35: Going Green: Carbon reduction through nature CaRe-Lands Cluster event June, 25th 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815c5f550346895dca685f/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Who does what best?
Government – Environment Minister, Regulators, Planning authorities, Protected areas
Market – Commercial agriculture, Rural economies. Green growth
NGOs/civil society – lobby, advocate, consume, vote, educate

Technology?
![Page 37: Going Green: Carbon reduction through nature CaRe-Lands Cluster event June, 25th 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815c5f550346895dca685f/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Why Sustainable Development?
• Not ‘sustained…’• Should be ‘common sense’• Joined up – economics, politics, environment, social• Chinese Vice-Minister – the most important
conversation• Helps think beyond short term commercial and political timetables
Politically inconvenient
![Page 38: Going Green: Carbon reduction through nature CaRe-Lands Cluster event June, 25th 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062520/56815c5f550346895dca685f/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Imperatives…..
• Decarbonise the global economy – vital and urgent• Recognise the true value of nature and of the services
we derive from it – health, water, food, fibre, fuel• Protect our threatened biodiversity• Appreciate the need for successful rural economies• Make better informed planning decisions• Help legislators and citizens understand why land use, and the longer term, matters• Work together
