Greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity loss are linked as dual indicators of environmental impact [1] and are both driven by common factors such as food production systems [2], [3], [4] and land-use changes [5]. Efforts to create sustainable food systems aim to mitigate both issues simultaneously by reducing emissions and protecting ecosystems [6].
