A daunting future: in the coming decades, we're looking at a 50% surge in food demand and a 30% drop in crop yields due to climate change. It is critical that we take #ClimateAction today.

We cannot afford to not act when we already know that early action saves lives and livelihoods The cost of inaction is severe – both in terms of hardship faced by people living on the edge, but also in higher costs humanitarian actors and governments must pay to respond More 👇
