We model combinatorial variations of yield intensification, dietary shift, and greenhouse gas mitigation scenarios. Findings include scenarios having significant tradeoffs across multiple environmental, economic, and social dimensions. Assessment of these multi-dimensional tradeoffs in a consistent framework improves the quality of information for decision-making.<br> <br> Should you have any questions,&nbsp;feel free to reach out&nbsp;Page Kyle at&nbsp;<a href="mailto:pkyle@pnnl.gov">pkyle@pnnl.gov</a>.&nbsp;</p>
