More than 100 world leaders at this year’s United Nations climate summit have agreed to make their farm and food systems a key part of their plans to fight climate change.
This includes seeking improvements in a sector that accounts for about a third of planet-warming emissions.
With livestock accounting for over half of those emissions, meat and dairy are at the forefront of many agriculture conversations at COP28 in Dubai.
