description The planet has already warmed by approximately 1.1°C due to human-induced climate change, affecting every region and impacting millions with higher temperatures, less predictable rainfall, rising seas, and fiercer storms. The agrifood sector, which supports 3.83 billion livelihoods, is especially vulnerable due to its dependence on weather. Reducing the emission of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere (mitigation) is critical to limit temperature rise and secure a liveable future for us all. Action must also be taken to protect communities from the worsening impacts of climate change and build resilience (adaptation). Yet, collective efforts to curb emissions and adapt to the impacts of climate change are not currently enough to tackle the speed and scale of climate impacts — meaning that some losses and damages from climate change are inevitable. We are witnessing dangerous and widespread losses and damages today, and we anticipate that future loss and damages will rise with increased global warming. How
