    The document discusses climate-smart agriculture (CSA), an approach to managing landscapes that addresses food security and climate change challenges. CSA aims to sustainably increase productivity and incomes, strengthen adaptation to climate impacts, and reduce emissions. While technology can help meet growing food demand, it may not guarantee desired results from genetically modified foods and there is a risk of more dangerous virus forms. CSA strategies help increase resilience to weather extremes, adapt to climate change, and decrease agriculture's greenhouse gas emissions.

    Learning Task 5.1. Food Security

    1. What is the film all about?


    ➔ The film is all about Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is an integrated
    approach to managing landscapes—cropland, livestock, forests and
    fisheries--that address the interlinked challenges of food security and
    climate change. A growing global population and changing diets are
    driving up the demand for food.
    2. What are the advantages shown by using science and technology
    presented?
    ➔ Climate-smart agriculture has three objectives: sustainably increase
    agricultural productivity and the incomes of agricultural producers;
    strengthen the capacities of agricultural communities to adapt to the
    impacts of climate change; and, where possible, reduce and/or remove
    greenhouse gas emissions.
    3. Are there any disadvantages you think might arise from using
    technology to alleviate food insecurity?
    ➔ The disadvantages: It is not quite sure that if the genes of interest are
    extracted from the body, they will perform their duty in the same
    manner at any other place.It is possible that the genes inserted in the
    genetically modified food get immune to the pesticides and
    insecticides and do not show the desired results. There is a possibility
    of viruses transforming into more dangerous and virulent forms than
    their existing state just because of the genetic modifications.
    4. What are the impacts of science, technology and innovation to meet
    the demand of society for food production?
    ➔ Technology has advanced into many areas of our lives, making
    information more accessible, improving communication, changing
    transportation, and the list goes on. While it is easy to sit back and
    benefit from a plethora of technological advancements, it is crucial we
    do not become blind to its effects on society

    5. What are the issues/ concerns of the film?


    ➔ Changing rainfall patterns, increased evaporative demand and
    reduced availability of water for irrigation all threaten agricultural
    production, particularly in areas where water supplies are already
    under pressure. Drier soil conditions will reduce growth of crops,
    pasture and trees.

    ➔ The term climate-smart agriculture (CSA) has developed to represent


    a set of strategies that can help to meet these challenges by
