Fig. 2: Demand for food, feed and material goods in 2015 and 2050 shown in both dry matter (DM) and energy content (EJ).
From: Projected landscape-scale repercussions of global action for climate and biodiversity protection
(A) Future demand for agricultural products without land-based climate action in place (BAU & PROTECT); (B) demand after global measures for terrestrial carbon uptake in scenarios COACTION and MULTI were implemented (Tab. 1). Food and feed demand are calculated within MAgPIE’s internal food demand and livestock modules, respectively, based on socio-economic scenario drivers. Bioenergy demand in (A) is derived from the SSP2 ‘middle-of-the-road’ storyline for the land-use sector, while in (B) we assume a conservative expansion of bioenergy demand in accordance with countries’ nationally determined contributions (NDC).
