Fourth climate change risk assessment – independent assessment (CCRA4-IA) technical report.
London, Climate Change Committee (CCC), 393-542.
Land, Nature, and Food encompass our natural environment in all its diversity above and below ground, in freshwater and in the seas surrounding the coastline. This chapter considers the impact of climate change on farmed landscapes, seascapes, as well as natural and semi-natural ecosystems. These systems support biodiversity, interact with agriculture and fisheries, and support the food industry and UK food security. This chapter considers both long term climate change and extreme weather events, which pose risks to land, food and nature systems.
