Managing food, a lifeline for all (BW Healthcare)
BW Healthcare published an article stating that climate change and food waste-induced hunger are a few of the most adverse crises facing our planet. The immediate impact of climate change is seen in the way we consume and produce food. Severe heat waves, droughts, and floods due to untimely rains are adversely affecting an agrarian economy like India. IFPRI’s 2022 Global Food Policy Report has warned that climate change may push many Indians towards hunger by 2030 due to a decline in agricultural production and disruption in the food supply chain. The report states that globally, around 65 million people are at risk due to climate change-induced hunger, with 17 million people in India facing hunger by 2030, the highest among all countries.
