This volume analyzes the global challenges of food security, land
use changes, and climate change impacts on food production in order
to recommend sustainable development policies, anticipate future
food services and demands, and identify the economic benefits and
trade-offs of meeting food security demands and achieving climate
change mitigation objectives. The key points of analysis that form
the conclusions of this book are based on measuring the quantity
and quality of land and water resources, and the rate of use of
sustainable management of these resources in the context of
socio-economic factors, including food security, poverty, and
climate change impacts. In six parts, readers will learn about
these crucial dimensions of the affects of climate change on food
security, and will gain a better understanding of how to assess the
trade-offs when combating multiple climate change challenges and
how to develop sustainable solutions to these problems. The book
presents multidimensional perspectives from expert contributors,
offering holistic and strategic approaches to link knowledge on
climate change and food security with action in the form of policy
recommendations, with a focus on sociological and socio-economic
components of climate change impacts. The intended audience of the
book includes students and researchers engaged in climate change
and food security issues, NGOs, and policy makers.
