12.7 trillion dollars PPP was the global hidden cost of agrifood systems in 2020, considering emissions, water use, soil change, unhealthy diets, malnutrition and poverty (FAO, 2023).
75% of greenhouse gas emissions come from cities, which also account for 70% of global energy consumption and 75% of natural resource consumption (GGGI, 2022).

Between US$61-63 million annually should be invested to prevent further conservation losses in Colombia after the peace agreement (Guerrero-Pineda, C. et al., 2022)
Between 38-52% is the expected rate of biodiversity decline in Colombia after the peace agreement (Guerrero-Pineda, C. et al., 2022)
In 44% the rate of deforestation increased after the peace agreement, especially affecting protected areas (Guerrero-Pineda, C. et al., 2022).
38-52% would be the national biodiversity loss in Colombia by 2033 if agricultural expansion is not controlled (Guerrero-Pineda, C. et al., 2022)
Around 186 instruments were issued between 1959 and 2018 in Colombia related to biodiversity (Echeverri, A., et, al., 2023)
24% of the land in Colombia is managed by 170 indigenous peoples and ethnic groups inhabiting it (Echeverri, A., et, al., 2023)
