RISING FOOD PRICES DUE TO RUSSIA-UKRAINE CONFLICTWhen Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, no one knew how long the conflict would last, or how deepthe impact would be for Europe or the rest of the world. As the war approaches its third month, the outlookfrom the conflict does not look good.Against an already global inflationary pressures due to rising food and energy prices and disrupted supplychains following the coronavirus pandemic (Covid-19), the war between Russia and Ukraine is increasingsupply and demand tensions, affecting consumer sentiment and global economic growth.The World Bank and International Monetary Fund (IMF) expected supply shocks to increase dramatically forcommodity prices in cases where Russia and Ukraine are major suppliers. Russia is a major supplier of oil, gas,and metals, and, together with Ukraine, of wheat and corn. Reduced supplies of these commodities havedriven their prices up sharply.The impact of the war in Ukraine was already slowing down Europe's economy. This is because the highinflation that's beginning to weigh on incomes and on consumption, and energy prices are weighing onproducers. The combination of supply-chain strains, inflation and the pandemic, together with the war, arethreatening global food supply.The Ukraine-Russia region is seen as one of a small handful of global "breadbaskets" (or major foodproducers) and plays a vital role not only as an exporter of primary staples like wheat, but also as one of themajor suppliers of fertilizer worldwide.There are six breadbaskets that together supply roughly 60 to 70% of global agricultural commodities. TheUkraine-Russia region is responsible for roughly 30% of global exports of wheat and 65% of sunflower, in acontext where those markets are increasingly tight and interconnected. Therefore, a slight disruption in supplycreates some impact on price.

In climate change models, the A2 scenario represents a differentiated world. The A2 scenario is characterized by high population growth, high energy use, medium economic growth rates, lower trade between countries, and slower rates of technological change and innovation. The A2 world "consolidates" into a series of economic regions. Economic growth is uneven-some countries grow fast and others not at all-and the income gap between now-industrialized and developing parts of the world grows through time. Environmentally-oriented political activism and civic engagement varies by country. In the context of climate change forecasts, the use of scenarios reflects: uncertainties about what causes climate change Ouncertainties about the total forcings of each atmospheric component uncertainties about future greenhouse gas emissions uncertainties about feedbacks in the climate system
