Abstract
The vegetable oils production and consumption play a crucial role in global land use changes, with some being among the main drivers of deforestation. In this webinar, we will discuss the findings of a recently published paper (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0048969723081160), examining the potential impacts on land use change and the resulting greenhouse gas emissions from global vegetable oil production. We will also explore various scenarios of oil substitution and deforestation-free production to better understand how to steer global production and consumption towards the challenge of environmental sustainability.
