Organisé au printemps 2022 par le Centre Maurice Chalumeau en Sciences des Sexualités, en partenariat avec l’ISE, le cycle de conférences "Climate & Sexual Change" a permis de comprendre comment s’opère la rencontre de la sphère sexuelle avec les problématiques écologiques et les savoirs climatiques.

Our food system is a major culprit in greenhouse gas emissions and therefore a main driver of climate change, which, consequently, exacerbates pressure on the planet’s natural resources and jeopardizes people’s livelihoods. However, to respond to increasing demand for food, our food system’s strategy was to produce more at the lowest cost.

A growing proportion of individual and institutional investors wish to distance themselves from the harmful effects caused by certain traditional investments. To be more sustainable, our investments must be accompanied by a redefinition of our values. Micro-investments in sustainability can lead to meaningful change.

A large – yet overlooked – contributor to GHG emissions and the climate crisis is our global food system. Although responsible for 24% of total food systems emissions, land use for human food production only makes up 8% of the total, the remaining 16% is attributed to livestock land use.
