Publication

This publication is a comment on the US' Climate and Food Security Study. It welcomes the focus on food security, which will be an important complement to existing studies on agriculture and climate change. However, the author stresses that it is critical for the study to also examine the existing social, economic and political reasons for chronic hunger, access and availability of food and assess how climate change is likely to impact the existing drivers of food insecurity and how best these issues can be tackled.
