The most unprotected and fragile populations, those who have the most difficulty accessing food, are the ones who will feel the impact of the potential food crisis resulting from the war in Ukraine the most, Pedro Fevereiro said today on the morning program of the Ukrainian Television. Antena 1, to which he was invited.
In a live interview with journalist Eduarda Maio, the executive director of InnovPlantProtect (InPP) also expressed concern about the transformation of agriculture in Europe towards a more sustainable model. Although the decisions have already been made, Pedro Fevereiro believes that there will be an impact when they are implemented, not only from an environmental point of view, but also from a social and economic one.
The director of the InPP argued that the current crisis, coupled with the previous one caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, is very worrying and that we are “forgetting other issues that are fundamental”, such as efforts to mitigate climate change and reduce the increase in the planet's average temperature, which are now even economically constrained.
