Combattre la faim & refroidir la Planète grâce à l’agroécologie

The report critiques 'climate-smart agriculture' as a corporate tool to maintain industrial food systems and instead advocates for agroecology. It asserts that agroecological practices increase resilience to extreme weather, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and improve the livelihoods of small-scale producers by focusing on local markets and biodiversity.

• Global hunger is increasing due to climate variability and extreme weather events, with the number of people suffering from chronic hunger rising from 804 million in 2016 to nearly 821 million in 2017.
• The concept of 'climate-smart agriculture' is characterized as a vague tool used by agro-industrial companies to 'greenwash' industrial production without changing the underlying economic or social power structures.
• Agroecology provides superior resilience to environmental shocks compared to conventional agriculture, reducing crop losses and soil erosion through practices such as crop rotation, the use of green manures, and the preservation of traditional seed varieties.
• Agroecological systems help cool the planet by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and increasing carbon sequestration in soils, while lowering fossil fuel consumption through a focus on local distribution.
• Small-scale producers, who feed 70% to 80% of the global population, face threats from unfair trade agreements and land grabbing by agro-industry, necessitating a transition to food sovereignty and relocalized food systems.
