Mr. Cascade Tuholske
Scale of analysis and cross-region effects are important consideration when assessing urban/rural transformation for food security and nutrition. Take land use for example. Rising household demand for meat in urbanizing China may be impacting deforestation in the Amazon. This has implications for household health in urban China, household livelihoods in the Amazon frontieer in Brazil, regional implications for the Amazon, and global implications for climate change.
