As heads of some of the world’s largest food companies, we have come together today to call out [the] opportunity [to take action at Paris COP-21 that could change our world for the better]...Climate change is bad for farmers and for agriculture. Drought, flooding and hotter growing conditions threaten the world's food supplies and contribute to food insecurity...If we don't take action now, we risk not only today's livelihoods, but also those of future generations...We want the women and men who work to grow the food on our tables to have enough to eat themselves, and to be able to provide properly for their families...Today we are making three commitments...We will:

• Re-energize our companies’ continued efforts to ensure that our supply chain becomes more sustainable, based on our own specific targets;
• Talk transparently about our efforts and share our best practices so that other companies and other industries are encouraged to join us in this critically important work;
• Use our voices to advocate for governments to set clear, achievable, measurable and enforceable science-based targets for carbon emissions reductions.

We are asking you to embrace the opportunity presented to you in Paris, and to come back with a sound agreement, properly financed, that can affect real change.
