“…Another study (Kantor et al 2017) makes an overview of specific CEEC political environments that govern economic and environmental policies in order to select several domains representing higher risks to society, environment, and economies of selected countries, together with evaluation of interlinkages between climate change, agriculture, and the water-energy-food nexus.…”

According to the objectives of the European Union concerning the climate changes, Member States should take all the necessary measures in order to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions. The aim of this study is to identify the causality relations between greenhouse gases emissions, added value from agriculture, renewable energy consumption, and economic growth based on a panel consisting of 11 states from the Central and Eastern Europe (CEECs) in the period between 2000 and 2017. The Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) method was used to estimate the long-term relationships among the variables. Also a Granger causality test based on the ARDL – Error Correction Model (ECM) and a Pairwise Granger causality test were used to identify the causality relationship and to detect the direction of causality among the variables. The results obtained reveal, in the long term, two bidirectional relationships between agriculture and economic growth and two unidirectional relationships from agriculture to greenhouse gas emissions and renewable energy. In the short term, four unidirectional relationships were found from agriculture to all the variables in the model and one unidirectional relationship from renewable energy to greenhouse gas emissions.

“…Humans need food for their survival, the repercussion of ood disasters is terrible because of insu cient accessibility, constrained utilization, and reduced access to food (Abbas et al, 2018;Pingali et al, 2019). Household food security managing capabilities are reduced due to longterm exposure of oods and farmers consequently bond to switch their assets to handle ood risks (Hwalla et al, 2016;Kantor et al, 2017). In the global scenario, rural communities are particularly confronted with manifested effects of oods such as agricultural production reduction, diminishing employment, lowering purchasing power, rising health issues, higher and severe threats of poverty, malnutrition, food insecurity, and enhancing hunger.…”

Food security is a global concern while economic growth, hunger eradication programs, raising agricultural productivity, and public policy measures have played a signi cant role in improving food security. However, to a great extent of Pakistan's population still experiencing poverty and hunger in their daily livelihood. Flood disasters have caused barricade agricultural production and interrupt livelihood routine matters so household-level food security is eventually affected by oods. This study investigated food security of rural ood-prone households of Punjab, Pakistan with a broader aspect in contrast to previous research work. Constructing the food security index composition of different IPCC and FAO factors with related dimensions of food security was used for the empirical estimation of this study. Composite food security index was developed through polychoric principal component analysis. To estimate the in uence on the whole food security condition in the study area food security index was regressed on various independent variables. The nding of the study indicated as ¾ of the household respondents in the study area are confronted with the issue of food security with a changeable scale. Financing schemes, physical assets, and family type illustrated the positive in uence on respondents' food security level whereas respondents suffering property losses owing to oods and having mostly status of female. Findings of the study suggested as integrated strategies necessitate adopting for well deal with issues of food security in the scenario of rising severity of ood disasters. In the scenario of Pakistan policymakers to deal with food insecurity tackled regarding ood hazards.

“…The “Nexus Thinking” and its multi-sector approach are therefore crucial to respond to the sustainability challenge for an effective management of resources in compliance with the SDGs, the Paris Agreement, and the European climate neutrality goal [ 5 ]. Concepts of the Nexus Thinking were successfully applied in developing countries [ 6 , 7 ], and currently also to countries with a more advanced economy [ 8 , 9 , 10 ]. Since 2011, when it was first brought to the attention of the institutions in the opening report of the World Economic Forum [ 11 ], the Nexus approach took on a central role as a method for understanding and modeling the complex interactions between the different resource systems (energy, water, food) [ 12 ].…”

The European Union’s 2030 climate and energy policy and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development underline the commitment to mitigate climate change and reduce its impacts by supporting sustainable use of resources. This commitment has become stricter in light of the ambitious climate neutrality target set by the European Green Deal for 2050. Water, Energy and Food are the key variables of the “Nexus Thinking” which face the sustainability challenge with a multi-sectoral approach. The aim of the paper is to show the methodological path toward the implementation of an integrated modeling platform based on the Nexus approach and consolidated energy system analysis methods to represent the agri-food system in a circular economy perspective (from the use of water, energy, biomass, and land to food production). The final aim is to support decision-making connected to climate change mitigation. The IEA-The Integrated MARKAL-EFOM System (TIMES) model generator was used to build up the Basilicata Water, Energy and Food model (TIMES-WEF model), which allows users a comprehensive evaluation of the impacts of climate change on the Basilicata agri-food system in terms of land use, yields and water availability and a critical comparison of these indicators in different scenarios. The paper focuses on the construction of the model’s Reference Energy and Material System of the TIMES model, which integrates water and agricultural commodities into the energy framework, and on the results obtained through the calibration of the model β version to statistical data on agricultural activities.
