Farmers Implementing The Paris Agreement on Climate Change
WFO, Farmers Implementing the Paris Agreement, 2016
Farmers, especially small-scale rural farmers, are directly affected by the severe weather events caused by climate change. However, they also represent part of the solution and by using climate smart agriculture practices as well as installing renewable energy technologies on their farms/land they can considerably help in reducing the possible risks related to climate change.
This booklet contains a collection of case studies showing the contribution that farmers all around the world are already making in tackling climate change by generating and using renewable energy in agriculture along with adaptation and mitigation techniques. The booklet also shows how farmers are supporting significantly the implementation of the Paris Agreement.
The cases included in this booklet, have been selected by WFO’s members from different regions all around the globe.
