On March 19th, 2009, the National Wildlife Federation hosted a dinner in conjunction with the Sustainable Food Lab and the World Wildlife Fund. Dinner guests discussed the links between tropical deforestation and greenhouse gas emissions and the markets for sustainable agricultural commodities.
In order to provide input to an ongoing dialogue among producers, traders and retailers interested in sustainably produced commodities, NWF produces a Climate Change, Deforestation and Agriculture Report that summarized the dialogue at the dinner.
This is part of a multi-year initiative aiming to present innovative solutions to reduce the impact of agriculture on tropical deforestation.
