GLF Climate: Frontiers of Change
Hosted on the sidelines of COP27 in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, and online, GLF Climate 2022: Frontiers of Change united 7,000 participants from 164 countries and rallied over 27 million people on social media around what humanity can still do to avoid the worsening impacts of the climate crisis.

How we can best accelerate action to reduce Scope 3 emissions
The world’s food systems urgently need to be reset. Our current systems encroach on the land – particularly forests. This session focuses on three commodities that drive forest loss: beef, soy, and palm oil. It looks at how we can best accelerate action to reduce Scope 3 emissions, where deforestation features so prominently.
Learn about key interventions we can take to identify, manage and reduce these “last mile” emissions, essential to achieving a net zero world. This session is hosted by the Food Systems, Land Use and Restoration Impact Program (FOLUR).
