Boakes, E.H., Dalin, C., Etard, A. et al. Impacts of the global food system on terrestrial biodiversity from land use and climate change. Nat Commun

Objective:

  • Examine the international production-based and consumption-based footprints of food-related commodities in 2011 in terms of land area, species richness, rarity-weighted species richness

Case:

  • Global countries

Methodology:

  • Leontief

Data Source

  • MRIO: EXIOBASE 3

Findings:

  • Regions with high production-based footprint tend to have a high consumption-based footprint
  • Total GHG-driven footprint of all food-related products is ~1% of the total land-driven richness footprints
