City governments have a leading role to play in ensuring a resilient and sustainable food system. We know that less carbon-intensive food choices coupled with less food waste and improved supply chains can cut city emissions substantially. We also know that by addressing public access and understanding around food choices, cities can help to improve the overall health and wellness of their citizens. In this session, CDP will invite city, health and food systems stakeholders to share their experiences and offer examples on how cities can work to incorporate sustainable food policies and programs that work for their citizens. We will be joined by the Daniel Vennard, WRI Director of the Better Buying Lab and Cool Food Pledge. We’ll also hear from Bridget Schrempf, who leads CDP’s new focus on Sustainable Food Systems. City speakers to be announced shortly.

85% of cities reported climate hazards in 2019 but only 46% of these cities completed risk and vulnerability assessments that help them assess the real-world impact of these hazards. Comprehensive risk and vulnerability assessments are critical to develop a picture of current and future climate risks and opportunities. This webinar hears insights and guidance on developing risk and vulnerability assessments from Dale Sands, co-chair of the United Nations ARISE Global Board (in association with UNDRR), The City of Cascais, Portugal and CDP's Director of Water Security.

The recent pandemic has brought to light the impact that air pollution has on our health, resilience and skylines. In this webinar, we are joined by the Deputy Mayor of Rennes, Charlotte Marchandise – who also serves as the President of WHO’s Healthy Cities for France and the co-president of GUAPO - Global Urban Air Pollution Observatory. The webinar welcomes Nathalie Roebbel, who serves as the Technical Officer for Social Determinants of Health for the World Health Organization (WHO). Finally we're joined by Karin Tuxen-Bettman who leads the Earth Outreach Program and Project Air View at Google which uses Google's mapping tools to help address some of our world’s most pressing problems. Together, we discuss pragmatic and cost-effective measures that cities can consider to target pollutants in key sectors, and bring substantial benefits for public health, air quality, near-term climate protection, and economic growth.
