Alvorlige miljøutfordringer, og ønske om mer bærekraftig landbruk: Kan økologisk landbruk bidra?

Summary in the original language of the document

This power point file was presented as a webinar for employees in the Norwegian organic certification body Debio, "Matvalget" and "Debio Info", on January 10, 2023. It highlights the main impacts from agriculture on planetary boundaries (biochemical flows of N and P; biodiversity) and provides arguments as to why conversion to organic production may improve the situation. Further, the presentation argues that by changing our eating habits, e.g. towards what was proposed in "Future Nordic Diet 2017", Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland may collaborate to produce food for 37 million people with organic production, and concurrently decrease climate impacts significantly. Less meat, more cereals and vegetables would be the main step of change.
