| Summary/Abstract |
Rural social movements and urban food activists have sought to build food sovereignty because it has the potential to be the foundation of an alternative food system, transcending the deep-seated social, economic and ecological contradictions of the global food economy.
However, continuing to build food sovereignty requires changes to global and local food systems that have to be undertaken in the messy reality of the present. This article therefore presents a series of wideranging, politically challenging but ultimately feasible interventions
that are necessary but not sufficient conditions for its realisation.

| Summary/Abstract |
Climate change is fast-paced and inevitable reality, that is heading our way, posing a risk to the existence of entire human kind. A significant aspect of climate change lies in the dynamic two-way interaction of our food systems and the warming planet. The two are mutually reinforcing each other. This article revolves around this dynamicity, examined through the lens of economy, geography and social connotations.

| Summary/Abstract |
Agriculture systems, which account for a sizable share of global greenhouse gas emissions, are placing a growing burden on the environment while also contributing to increasingly common health problems. Climate change is making the situation worse by reducing agricultural productivity as well as the nutritional content of certain crops, which in turn is driving intensified production to meet global food demand. To break out of this potentially catastrophic feedback loop, societies must realign agricultural policies, financial incentives, and diets to promote health and environmental sustainability.

| Summary/Abstract |
Peasants and rural communities are on the front lines of most climate catastrophes taking place nowadays worldwide; at the same time, we have been the ones taking care of our common planet over generations. This article begins with a brief overview of the current situation of land use in the world today and links it to climate issues. It then describes some of the solutions to climate threats being negotiated between national governments and the private sector. It then highlights solutions that communities are already implementing and concludes with the reasons why systemic change is needed in order to achieve agrarian and climate justice.
