Data or statistical facts on the situation and perspectives of agri-food systems and the impact of policies
10% of GHG emissions from food systems in LAC come from energy use outside of primary activities (Crippa et al, 2021).
19% is the calculation for the reduction in global income over the next 26 years due to climate impacts (Kotz, et al., 2024).
60% will be the income loss in 2100 if emissions continue at the current pace and the global average temperature exceeds 4°C (Kotz, et al., 2024).
22% would be the reduction in per capita income in South Asia and Africa due to climate impacts, being the most affected regions (Kotz, et. al., 2024)
$6 trillion dollars (2005 prices) is the difference in cost between climate damages and mitigation costs in 2050 (Kotz, et. al., 2024).
More than 10% of annual investments worldwide are made by National Development Finance Institutions (World Bank, 2024).
29.1 MtCO₂e/yr was the emission of Honduras' forests, while they absorbed 33.8 MtCO₂e/yr between 2001-2022, resulting in a net sequestration of -4.70 MtCO₂e/yr (GF2, 2024).
25.90 MtCO₂e/year was the average greenhouse gas emission from deforestation due to agricultural expansion in Honduras between 2001 and 2022 (GFW, 2024).
569.9 MtCO₂ was the greenhouse gas emissions from deforestation due to agricultural expansion in Honduras between 2001 and 2022 (GFW, 2024).
103.05 MtCO₂ was the greenhouse gas emissions from deforestation due to agricultural expansion in Costa Rica between 2001 and 2022 (GFW, 2024).
