UN conventions – how can they impact the future of farming?

The regenagri podcast explores the future of farming and the hot topics surrounding the global movement of regenerative agriculture, with industry experts.
In episode 12, Harry Farnsworth, sustainable agriculture projects lead at Control Union UK, welcomes James Lomax from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).
James’ work focuses on regenerative and net-positive agriculture, sustainable land-use finance mechanisms and coordinating UNEP’s internal work on food systems and agriculture.
With COP26 in progress at the time of recording, there is no better time to explore how UN conventions bring about tangible impacts. James also reflects on the UN biodiversity conference, COP15, which took place in October, and how farming has a crucial role to play in finding solutions to the climate and biodiversity crises.
