Understanding the Impact of Climate Change on Nutrition
Deeply Talks from Malnutrition Deeply: Climate change will have significant, long-lasting effects on food and nutrition. A major study published recently in Science Advances showed one such example. The research revealed how rice grown in higher levels of carbon dioxide has lower amounts of key nutrients. This will have a significant impact, particularly on communities that depend on rice as a vital source of nutrients. For this episode of Deeply Talks we spoke to two researchers Irakli Loladze and Dr. Kristie Ebi to explore what this could mean for consumers, policymakers and the private sector, and to think about the broader implications for our diets.
