Immediate action needed to improve health of humans and the planet
While more than 900 million people worldwide suffer from hunger, nearly double that number—1.5 billion—are overweight or obese, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO).

FAO together with the Rome-based NGO Bioversity International has released a new book that promotes sustainable diets while protecting biodiversity.
