Countries across Europe & N. America have worked together for 45 years to cut harmful #airpollution through UNECE #AirConvention. In Europe alone, these measures save 600,000 lives annually & have extended life expectancy by 1 year ➡️unece.org/media/Sustaina… 🇪🇺EU at UN-NY UN ECOSOC President


FAO is proud to host 2nd meeting of the Climate & Clean Air Coalition Food and Agriculture Organization Agrifood Systems Assessment! The assessment will serve as a practical resource, bridging science & policy to strengthen the implementation of actions (with multiple benefits) on super pollutants in #agrifoodsystems 🌱
