Impact of climate change on maternal and child undernutrition

Food-based anemia in India  with  rising  deficits in dietary intake of iron-rich vegetables, and fruit. Search for polycentric solutions.

    • In time of accelerated rate of climate change, relevant concept for human welfare is ensuring that net deficits in dietary intake are avoided. Particularly at an early age.

      Sustainable livelihood systems require adequate net dietary intake. Means availability of clean non-contaminated drinking water, control of water and insect borne diseases, avoiding capability poverty (undeveloped brain circuitry due to stunting) at early age, and balanced dietary intake.

      Sustainable food security- as apparently argued by FAO -  represents an inferior reductionist concept.
