Summary
Sustainable food systems cut across the achievement of all the Sustainable Development Goals. However, current agricultural practices and systems are depleting our natural resources. Agriculture is the largest consumer of the world's freshwater resources, one of the main contributors to greenhouse gasses, and more than one-quarter of the energy used globally is consumed on food production and supply.
