Abstract:
The method of infant feeding has consequences for the production of greenhouse gases (GHG) as well as for the risks to infants posed by climate change. Breastfeeding can reduce the carbon footprint associated with the use of commercial infant formula by nearly 50% while reducing its water footprint and waste. It is also an excellent way of coping with emergencies associated with climate change, such as water shortages, since breastfed children are better protected than those fed with formula. To ensure that the protection offered by breastfeeding can be realized, we present elements that can help decision-makers seize a promising opportunity: improve infant feeding support for women and families.
