# Food system impacts on biodiversity loss

03 February 2021

![Cover page](https://cdn.unenvironment.org/s3fs-public/2021-02/Cover%20food%20systems.png?VersionId=null)

The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), Chatham House and Compassion in World Farming are excited to launch in partnership, a new Chatham House report, ‘Food System Impacts on Biodiversity Loss’.

Biodiversity, crucial to human and planetary health, is declining faster than at any time in human history. Humanity relies on the earth’s natural systems to regulate the environment, maintain a habitable planet and produce food. Paradoxically, however, the way we have been producing food over the last 50 years has been driving biodiversity loss.

Read the report to find out the three actions needed for food system transformation in support of biodiversity, and the recommendations to embed food system reform in high-level political events over the coming UN ‘Super Year’ for Nature.
