INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION ON THE FUTURE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE

Worldwide campaign
to support the principles and call for action of

THE MANIFESTO
on
CLIMATE CHANGE AND THE FUTURE OF FOOD SECURITY

This cutting edge document clearly spells out:

  • the link between food and agriculture and climate change
  • how the current industrial system is a major contributor of CO2 emissions
  • how GMOs and large-scale production of agro-fuels - promoted as ‘clean’ or ‘green’ energy - are a false solution and contribute to both climate change and food insecurity in the world.
  • how ecological organic food and agriculture systems are a solution to the hazards of climate change by resilience, mitigation and adaptation

these reasons are why agriculture must be included in the Copenhagen Kyoto 2 climate negotiations

sign up to the Manifesto now and join in the call

  • for an ecological agricultural system that responds to climate change in terms of mitigation and adaptation and an energy transition to a post-fossil fuel era
  • for an ecological agriculture based on the principles of biodiversity, sustainability, health, and participatory democracy
  • for an ecological agriculture that protects the environment and promotes local food and agricultural systems
  • to include agriculture in the Copenhagen Kyoto 2 round of climate negotiations
  • and make your voice heard at the G8 meeting in Sardinia in July and at Kyoto 2 Copenhagen climate negotiations in December 2009 *

sign on

* The Commission will convey the results of the Manifesto campaign to the G8 summit in Sardinia (July 2009) and to the Copenhagen Kyoto 2 climate negotiations (December 2009).
