Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
Half of the revenue from carbon pricing has been earmarked to finance climate and environmental programs (World Bank, 2024).
3% of the world's territory is occupied by cities, but they consume up to 80% of energy and generate 75% of carbon emissions (UN, 2023).
31% represents the increase experienced by flows destined for environmental protection during the decade between 2011 and 2021 in LAC (ECLAC. et al, 2024).
More than 60% of the Honduran road network is exposed to natural hazards, mainly floods and landslides, affecting rural connectivity and accessibility (World Bank, 2023).
0.90% (28.5 kha) is the land cover in the Dominican Republic occupied by agricultural land and 17% of the land cover is grassland (554 kha) (GFW, 2024).
187.3 MtCO₂e/year was the greenhouse gas emission associated with Mexico's forests, while between 2001 and 2022 they removed 216 MtCO₂e/year, resulting in a net carbon capture of -129 MtCO₂e/year (GFW, 2024).
65.33 MtCO₂e/year was the annual average of greenhouse gases due to deforestation caused by the expansion of the agricultural frontier in Mexico between 2001 and 2023 (GFW, 2024).
15.1 Gt is the total carbon storage in Mexico, with most of the carbon stored in soil (GFW, 2024).
157.51 MtCO₂ of emissions were generated by deforestation due to agricultural expansion in the Dominican Republic between 2001 and 2023 (GFW, 2024).
672 Mt is the total carbon storage in the Dominican Republic, with most of the carbon stored in soil (GFW, 2024).
