SCN News No 21 - Nutrition and the Environment

UN Standing Committee on Nutrition

Published in : 2000

Available in : English

This issue of SCN News deals with nutrition and the environment. With two major global conferences held in the past two months on environmental concerns, as well as increased media attention to climate change and global warming, environmental pollution and safety of the food supply, we felt it appropriate to set out a series of articles on the linkages with nutrition.
