Impact of climate change and bioenergy on nutrition

This paper begins by laying out the current state of global food insecurity and malnutrition, including magnitude, trends and future projections.

A chapter on policy implications provides a number of options for improving food security and nutrition, as well as for addressing the links between climate change and bioenergy demand on the one hand and nutrition on the other.
