In the last biennium, FAO supported Latin American and Caribbean countries to transform their agri-food systems. Despite a fourth consecutive year of decline, over 33 million people still suffer from hunger, and millions lack healthy food access. Through its "Four Betters" (better production, nutrition, environment, and a better life), FAO fosters more efficient, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable systems.

Lake Erie, part of Earth's largest surface freshwater system, provides drinking water for 11 million people. Its water quality is threatened by increased fertilizer-derived nutrients.

Researchers Anna Michalak, Tom Bridgeman, and Pete Richards are studying how farming practices and severe weather contribute to these nutrient levels, which diminish water quality and threaten the lake's ecosystem and public health. This research was published on July 12, 2013.

On November 28, 2015, at Turtle Lodge in Sagkeeng First Nation, Manitoba, Indigenous Elders and Knowledge Keepers presented The Great Binding Law. This significant presentation, led by Anishinabe, Nehetho (Cree), and Dakota representatives, responded to the Assembly of Manitoba Chiefs' request for guidance on the National Energy Board's pipeline proposals.

The Elders, including Oshoshko Bineshiikwe (Blue Thunderbird Woman) and Nii Gaani Aki Inini (Dave Courchene), shared their wisdom. A video of part of their presentation is available, though sacred ceremonies were not recorded. Symon Ptashnick filmed the event.

Agriculture is responsible for approximately 14% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Cattle, raised for milk and meat, are significant contributors, emitting climate-warming methane. This creates a challenge, balancing environmental concerns with strong consumer demand for dairy and beef products.

Anna Rosling Rönnlund's project explores daily life globally, from brushing teeth in Sweden to making beds in Rwanda. She sent photographers to 264 homes in 50 countries, documenting items like stoves, beds, and toys across all income levels.

This initiative uses data visualization to reveal diverse living conditions worldwide. Rosling Rönnlund demonstrates how families live, from Latvia to Peru, fostering a better understanding of our interconnected world.
