Whatever the commitments countries are making about decarbonizing their economies, one thing is certain: climate change is happening, and its impacts are being felt disproportionately by the poor. In Africa the agricultural sector, dominated by small producers and subsistence farming, is especially vulnerable. Adaptation can play a vital role in helping these farmers, and in this podcast you'll hear from Rodger Voorhies, President for Global Growth and Opportunity at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and Cristina Rumbaitis del Rio, co-author of a new WRI paper on how digital services can transform the lives of 300 million farmers (www.wri.org/research/digital-climate-informed-advisory-services).
