Synopsis (short abstract) The presentation highlights the key messages from the FAO publication, Climate change: Unpacking the burden on food safety. Climate change is associated with rising temperatures, droughts, wildfires as well as the amplification and increased frequency of extreme weather events like hurricanes. These changes have implications for food safety and food security. However, while climate change impacts on food security are well-known, the implications for food safety have received less attention. To address this, a document, Climate change: Unpacking the burden on food safety, was recently published by FAO which identified some anticipated and current food safety issues that are associated with various climate change-related environmental factors. Apart from raising awareness of the issue, the objective of the publication was also to help foster better international cooperation in reducing the global burden of these concerns.
