Coming up in September's Global Climate Action Summit

Even before I attend the final planning committee meeting this Tuesday, I want to make a note of this, 1:30-2:30 on Thursday, September 13:

What We Eat and How It’s Grown: Food Systems and Climate
One-third of global emissions come from food production, so what people eat and how it is produced is a key piece of the climate solution. At the same time, more than one-third of the food produced globally every year is wasted and often sent to a landfill where it produces even more emissions as it decomposes. Fortunately, there are many efforts underway to reduce emissions from farm to fork and beyond. In this session, join the farmers, producers, chefs, businesses, and experts improving production, challenging us to eat better, reducing organic waste and properly diverting it to end uses like compost and changing the global food system for the better.
