Tech For Climate Action Conference | Sustainable Food Production

Join Green Initiatives as we host Tech For Climate Action Conference |Sustainable Food Production, with support from The Royal Norwegian Consulate General in Shanghai

In order to set tangible climate targets and to achieve them, companies and governments will need to quantify, reduce and monitor their emissions and footprints.

The right technological solutions can simplify this process and make it more efficient, transparent and effective. This will further give companies the confidence to invest in solutions and services where there is a potential to communicate the achievement of their targets, and/or the return on their investments.

KEY TOPICS

This conference will be a great platform to connects businesses, and together learn more about tangible industry solutions to transition to low-carbon economy, innovations, technology and trends around:

Sustainable Food Production

Agriculture contributes to a number of environmental issues that cause environmental degradation including climate change, deforestation, biodiversity loss, dead zones, genetic engineering, irrigation problems, pollutants, soil degradation, and waste. While agriculture is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions, the industry is also one of the most vulnerable when it comes to being impacted by climate change. Thus, our food production systems have a big opportunity to remedy the status quo and come out as a leader in mitigating climate change.

• Modernizing a centuries old industry
• How can technology make agriculture more sustainable and less wasteful
• Farm to Table: Food chain or blockchain
• The new “Green” Revolution
• Vertical farming on the rise
