Join us as we sit down with Rodrigo Lima of Agroicone LDTA, Rodrigo Cassola of UNEP WCMC and our very own Izzy Widdowson to discuss the importance of biodiversity in the agricultural industry, the effects of deforestation, and the steps we can take to achieve a net-zero agri-food system.
Deforestation and forest degradation are essential drivers of global warming and biodiversity loss. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), 420 million hectares of forest — an area larger than the European Union — were lost to
deforestation between 1990 and 2020.
