00:05.070 --> 00:08.579
Food is on the menu.
I'm super excited that food and agriculture has

00:08.590 --> 00:15.550
been so prominently on the COP 28 agenda and
rightly so food and agriculture responsible

00:15.560 --> 00:18.319
for about 25% of all global emissions.

00:18.750 --> 00:22.930
But it's also one of the key enablers for so
many of the STGS.

00:23.940 --> 00:30.920
So what has taken place during the COP 28 1?
A groundbreaking commitment has been made with

00:30.930 --> 00:36.349
over 150 countries signing the declaration of
sustainable agriculture and resilient food

00:36.360 --> 00:39.900
system.
This will make sure food and agriculture will

00:39.909 --> 00:42.360
be prominent on the cop agenda moving forward.

00:42.729 --> 00:48.479
But what I'm really excited about is the
collaboration and acknowledgement that it needs

00:48.490 --> 00:50.040
to be a holistic approach.

00:50.389 --> 00:55.639
We need to take a total perspective instead of
a single dimension two,

00:55.840 --> 01:00.680
the launch of the Alliance of Champions
dedicated on food System transformation,

01:00.689 --> 01:04.040
launched by five countries, Brazil, Rwanda,
Sierra Leone,

01:04.050 --> 01:05.559
Cambodia, and Norway.

01:06.230 --> 01:10.949
And this alliance will help to shape the
blueprint for how to realize the food system

01:10.959 --> 01:15.489
transformation plus, set up gold standards on
what needs to be measured.

01:15.779 --> 01:18.650
This could be true inspiration for so many
countries.

01:18.750 --> 01:25.080
Three, the United Nations A O has launched
their road map to actually combines

01:25.699 --> 01:32.629
hunger number two, but within the 1.5 degrees
Paris climate agreement and this

01:32.639 --> 01:34.959
is a tangible and actionable road map.

01:35.300 --> 01:38.269
It's still at the global level.
But in subsequent cops,

01:38.279 --> 01:42.529
cops 29 and 30 it will be detailed to a region
and country level.

01:43.260 --> 01:44.769
So what can we do today?

01:45.069 --> 01:48.120
First, we need to get in action mode.

01:49.580 --> 01:56.500
The roadmap provides clear actions over 120
actions across 10 different sectors within the

01:56.510 --> 01:59.620
food system.
And this includes clear actions on how to

01:59.629 --> 02:04.500
improve soil health, food waste emission
reductions, etc.

02:04.940 --> 02:11.690
Second, I love the data as a systemic enabler.
We need to unlock the power of data for better

02:11.699 --> 02:15.860
decision making and how to optimize food
operations and agriculture.

02:15.919 --> 02:21.619
How can we work together with big tech and data
players to enable areas like precision farming,

02:22.509 --> 02:24.850
early warning systems and smart manufacturing.

02:25.289 --> 02:28.550
Bottom line.
We need to get cracking and establish the

02:28.559 --> 02:31.779
supporting data systems.
Overall, I am super excited.

02:31.910 --> 02:35.899
I can't wait to see the actions and impact
coming out of this cop 28.
