Extreme #wildfires are projected to become about 50% more frequent by the end of the century and environmental changes linked to #ClimateChange, such as increased drought, high air temperatures and strong winds, are likely to result in hotter, drier, and longer fire seasons. FAO today released guidelines for countries outlining how to manage the risks of damaging wildfires, which can threaten people and the environment. Integrated Fire Management Voluntary Guidelines: Principles and strategic actions updates previous FAO fire management voluntary guidelines that were published two decades ago and incorporates new content to address challenges stemming from the current climate crisis. Currently, around 340 million to 370 million hectares of the Earth's surface are burned by wildfire annually. When these wildfires become extreme, they can adversely affect sustainable development, threaten communities' livelihoods, and generate large volumes of greenhouse gas emissions. “How we respond to the wildfire challenge is of crucial importance. We must shift our focus from reactive responses to proactive strategies and prioritize prevention and preparedness,” said Zhimin Wu, Director of FAO’s Forestry Division.

FAO has been scaling up and will continue to increase its support to Small Island Developing States (SIDS) to transform their agrifood systems to enable them to be part of the climate solutions and effectively contribute to food availability, accessibility and affordability, said FAO Director-General Qu Dongyu in his address today at a conference hosted by the Ministry of Agriculture and Environment of Cabo Verde entitled “Accelerating Agrifood Systems Transformation in Cabo Verde”. According to the Director-General, efficient agrifood systems transformation requires four key factors. Firstly, it is political commitment at all levels and across all sectors. Secondly, he pointed to the need for an enabling policy to attract both domestic and foreign investment, including long-term land policy and tax policy in favour of technology. Thirdly, Qu emphasized the importance of changing the business model and promoting an efficient human resources policy to encourage citizens to return to their countries and contribute to their prosperity. Lastly, he highlighted the role of innovation, including in adapting crops to local conditions, while attracting scientific expertise. The Director-General underscored the overarching need for coordinated action and targeted financing by both the public and private sectors, with guidance and input from civil society and academia. https://lnkd.in/d4BBWVsm
