In combination with climate change, these changes raise concerns about current meat-heavy diets, water use and strategies for bioenergy production.

Continued degradation of global ecosystems and their services will influence poverty and inequality, potentially driving increased migration. Wed, 18 Feb 2015 00:00:00 GMT Nicole Kobosil
