Subject: [Biodiversity_for_Nutrition] Climate change will make rice less nutritious, putting millions of the world’s poor at risk
“Our data showed for the first time that rice grown at the concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide scientists expect the world to reach by 2100 has lower levels
of four key B vitamins. These findings also support research from other field studies showing rice grown under such conditions contains less protein, iron and zinc, which are important in fetal and early child development. These changes could have a disproportionate
impact on maternal and child health in the poorest rice-dependent countries, including Bangladesh and Cambodia.”
