"I believe that science holds the key to addressing many of the interconnected challenges we face today — not just one or two isolated issues. Through science and innovation, we can optimize how we utilize our biodiversity by identifying the most suitable crops, animals, fish, and fibers for specific environments. At present, there is often a disconnect between what ecosystems can sustainably produce and what is actually being produced around the world. This imbalance stems largely from decisions that overlook scientific knowledge and the urgent need to meet the demands of a growing population. I am convinced that science and innovation can lead to more efficient production with fewer inputs, ensuring sustainability for the future."
