Food production

There can be big differences depending on where you buy your food, and how it was produced, but this calculator looks at the average impacts of the food available in Namibia.

What we eat is one of the biggest factors in minimising food system impacts on nature and climate, but in some countries it won't be possible to provide everyone with enough healthy and nutritious food if we don't also change how the food is produced, or where it is sourced from.
