Sustainable Diets: Bridging between Climate Change and Food Security

There is a complex relationship between climate change, security and sustainability of the food system, which greatly affects human health. Different factors of climate change can have a positive or negative effect on the food system and pattern; There are various strategies to control or avoid these effects, which we discuss in this article. Studies published from the beginning to ۲۰۲۴ analyzing "the effect of climate change on food security and role of sustainable diets" were searched by searching Google Scholar, Pubmed, and Web of Science. Among the screened articles, related articles were reviewed. The effects of climate change on food production and availability, as well as extreme weather events, affect both the physical and economic accessibility of food. Climate change also affects the stability and resilience of food systems, which has long-term implications for food security. Additionally, efforts to achieve food security through agricultural intensification and land expansion contribute to greenhouse gas emissions from deforestation and land use changes. The solution lies in establishing a sustainable nutrition and food system that ensures food security for all without compromising the economic, social, and environmental well-being of future generations. Some of these nutritional and dietary patterns, such as Eat-lancet, vegetarian, and Mediterranean diets, have been investigated and approved by numerous scientific sources. Certainly, more interventions focusing on sustainable food pattern and other adaptation methods and necessary strategies for their widespread implementation are needed.
