“…Second, taking into account that collaboration is one of the keys to encouraging community resilience (Syddall et al, 2022), this study suggests "risk-framing work by professionals" (Madsen et al, 2019). In addition to enhancing risk perception among the community, it is also beneficial to engage professional communities including politicians, local governments, NGOs, and academics to have a higher or better risk perception to climate change and its impacts, particularly on small islands.…”

This study explores climate risk perception of communities in two small islands, Mepar and Baran, located in Lingga Regency, Riau Islands Province to fill in the lack of knowledge regarding the topic in Indonesia and to support island bottom-up climate change adaptation planning. This study uses proportional random sampling and a questionnaire survey of 165 households to collect data related to demography, level of knowledge, level of risk perception, and adaptation actions taken by communities. We use descriptive statistics and employ discriminant analysis to determine factors influencing risk perception of these small islands’ communities. We identify two categories of risk perception in this study as a basis for analysis, namely risk perception on climate change hazards and climate change risk perception on community’s life. This study finds four factors that consistently influence both types of risk perception on climate change. These are the number of climate change indicators perceived, age, and the experience on extreme weather both at sea and on the island. Other influencing factors which have a partial role include the duration of residence on the island, place of birth, education level, and trade relations. We then critically discuss the results within the complexity of small island development and bottom-up climate change adaptation.

“…Operational costs for aquaculture producers, seafood processors, and fishermen come from energy and raw material price increases, according to Rahman et al [58]. Prices are reaching EUR 1 per liter in several EU nations, with the industry claiming profits from EU vessel operations of up to EUR 0.60 per liter [59,60].…”

The accomplishment of food/nutrition security for all across sustainable food systems (SFS) is tied to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). SFS is connected to all SDGs via the traditional framework of social inclusion, economic development, environmental safety, inclusivity, and the development of sustainable food systems. We suggest that, for the world to achieve sustainable development, a shift to SFS is necessary to guarantee food/nutrition security for all, while operating within planetary boundaries to protect ecosystems and adapt to and mitigate climate change. Therefore, there is a requirement for original approaches that implement systemic and more participatory methods to engage with a wider range of food system stakeholders. However, the lack of skills and tools regarding novel methodologies for food system transformation is a key obstacle to the deployment of such approaches in practice. In the first part of this review, a summary of some challenges that occur in the governance of food system transformation is given. Through a case study of plant-based proteins and their biological and chemical modification as diets shift towards alternative proteins, we demonstrate that resource-efficient food systems and food waste, through system transformation, are useful in understanding both (i) how food system transformation has ensued and (ii) how the required transformation is prohibited. Finally, we discuss the implications of food system transformation in terms of nutrition and sustainable healthy diets, which are needed to achieve changes in food safety systems in the future. The linkage of food and the environment is evident, focusing on nutrition and sustainable healthy diets. This cannot be accomplished without system change and research towards new foods and, more specifically, new proteins such as plant-based ones and their biological and chemical modification.

“…In addition, fisheries are important for food security, especially in coastal countries or river deltas, and are also a source of income [28,29]. Fish provides proteins and fatty acids, which are essential components of a nutritious diet, and it is relevant, especially in Africa and Asia.…”

Global climate change, induced by anthropogenic causes, has severe consequences for Earth and its inhabitants. With the consequences already visible around the globe, one of them is the impact on food security. The lack of food security has serious impacts on health, especially in vulnerable populations who highly depend on a nutritious diet for a healthy life. The following research aims to assess the current research status of climate change, food security and health. In this context, the interlinkage of the three key concepts is analyzed, as well as the related health consequences. To achieve the aims of this research, a bibliometric analysis was conducted using VOSviewer, (version 1.6.16) including 453 papers. The data were retrieved from the Scopus database on 10 November 2022. Bibliometric analysis can illustrate emerging and key topic areas using keywords and co-occurrence analysis; hence, it is an adequate method to meet the listed research aims. Five different clusters have been derived from the analysis, each representing a different perspective on interlinkage. From the different clusters, the main consequences of climate change on food security could be derived, such as a decrease in crop yields, less availability of fish and livestock, or food contamination through mycotoxins. These can cause serious health implications, predominantly increasing the rate of malnutrition globally. The work showed the importance of action to prevent the consequences of climate change in relation to food security and health nexus. To do so, adaptation strategies are needed that consider the interdisciplinary scope of the problem, building sustainable measures that benefit each concept.
