Large-scale land-based mitigation (~600 Mha) in pathways in line with the Paris agreement could conflict with food security.
Mitigation in 2050 might change food...
The Sahel is at the nexus of extreme ecological, socio-economic, and food security challenges where Green Revolution technologies have not been adopted and yields remain unchanged since the 1960s...
A recurrent controversy related to food systems and their transition toward more sustainability is the ability of organic farming to produce sufficient food for a growing world population. This long-term...
Economic growth and shared prosperity in Sub-Saharan Africa will be increasingly undermined if vulnerabilities to climate change are not addressed. Climate impacts, which...
Heat waves and drought are often considered the most damaging climatic stressors for wheat. In this study, we characterize and attribute the effects of these climate extremes on wheat...
All species have an environmental niche, and despite technological advances, humans are unlikely to be an exception. Here, we demonstrate that for millennia, human populations have...
