DESCRIPTION:Globally\, agriculture is the greatest threat to biodiversity 
 and a major contributor to anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Both pressures wil
 l increase over coming decades as populations and per capita consumption i
 ncrease. How we choose to produce food will\, to a large extent\, determin
 e the state of biodiversity and the wider environment in the 21st Century.
  My research examines different potential land-use strategies in Yucatán\
 , Mexico\, to identify landscapes that minimise biodiversity loss and maxi
 mise carbon storage\, whilst meeting current and future food demands.
