Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
88% of global emissions come from countries committed since 2019 to net zero GHG emissions (Cosbey and Vogt-Schilb, 2023).
Up to $30 in economic benefits can be generated by each dollar invested in restoration, improving ecosystem services, employment and GDP growth.
45% of current global emissions should be reduced to reach 1.5°C of global warming (UNEP, 2022).
50,857.5 Kton CO₂e El Salvador seeks to reduce in its AFOLU sector between 2035 and 2040, conditional on financing (Government of El Salvador, 2021).
In the Mariño basin, agroecological practices enhance food self-sufficiency, family income, and create synergies between productivity, climate adaptation, and mitigation (Quispe et al., 2021).
100% of the analyzed VSS (Fairtrade, Rainforest Alliance, Organic, RSPO, ISCC, RTRS, ProTerra, FSC, PEFC) include required criteria for greenhouse gas reduction and carbon emissions (Larrea et al., 2021).
4.5 KtCO2e is the minimum emissions reduction that Belize aims to achieve by reducing methane emissions from livestock by 10% by 2030 (Belize, 2021).
5,647 KtCO2e is the total emissions reduction Belize expects to achieve across all sectors between 2021 and 2030, according to its updated NDC in 2021 (Belize, 2021).
57% of all agricultural GHG emissions come from nitrous oxide, where agricultural land management practices drive 94%, equivalent to 316 Tg CO2e of total U.S. N2O emissions (USEPA, 2021).
106.53 MtCO₂e will be Costa Rica's maximum net emissions budget between 2021 and 2030 (Government of Costa Rica, 2020).
