Opinion: Can governance reforms like Brazil’s get us to net-zero?
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/126003
Abstract
Can governance reforms like Brazil’s get us to net-zero? One narrative present among climate change discussions is that reducing agricultural greenhouse gas, or GHG, emissions would compromise food security and the availability of food in the global south. We agree that reducing GHG emissions comes with trade-offs, but this does not mean we should abandon efforts toward climate change mitigation in agriculture and forestry,…

From vulnerability to agency in climate adaptation and mitigation
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/116027

Cruel irony: The people least responsible for climate change are the ones suffering the most.
➡️Smallholder farmers watching their fields dry up.
➡️Rural women walking farther each day for food and water.
➡️Whole communities flooded, displaced, or left behind.
Yet climate action still too often overlooks them. We can’t afford climate solutions that are technically sound but socially fragile…
