Feeding a Warming Planet: Building Resilience in Food Systems 

Wildfires, droughts, and rising seas are the visible face of climate change—but beneath them lies another crisis: unstable global food and water supplies. In this critical discussion moderated by Amy Harder and leading UChicago faculty, Fiona Burlig, explore how shifting temperatures, freshwater scarcity, and ecological disruption are transforming the systems that sustain human life. They also explore innovative strategies for mitigating these impacts and building resilience into the world’s food systems for the future.
