ARMED CONFLICT IN UKRAINE: FOOD SECURITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS
Abstract
The ongoing conflict has far-reaching consequences, not only for the citizens of Ukraine and Russia but for societies and economies worldwide. This paper examines specific geopolitical, economic, and environmental impacts of the war – both direct and indirect consequences on food security, including rising prices, as well as short-term and long-term implications on the environment, including the impact on agricultural land and loss of biodiversity. It is concluded that the conflict is likely to have a greater impact on the environment than on the economy.
