Abstract
Can the world meet growing demand for food while sharply reducing greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture – and without converting more forests into agriculture? In the World Resources Report: Creating a Sustainable Food Future, WRI set forth a challenging, global five-course menu of actions to do so. How should a country adapt this menu to its own agricultural context? A Pathway to Carbon Neutral Agriculture in Denmark answers this question for Denmark, a country whose major agricultural organizations have committed to become carbon neutral by 2050.
