Food crisis
Food crisis
Food crisis have been an issue among developing countries for years but as the time goes on it’s getting more serious. With the raising of the prices for food even in the past year along has affected many people even in US. Many people are starving or dying from starvation because they just can’t afford to buy food for themselves and their families. I think that this is the issue that everyone should be aware off and try to help out as much as they can because if we run out of the resources to produce food it will impact even more people.
The article “what’s causing rising prices” talks about how a lot of the developing countries around the world have many people that can’t afford to buy food because of the rising prices that keep going up and a lot of them have only $1 or $2 dollars for food per day which doesn’t get them anything. Many people will try to find alternative ways to make food so they won’t die from starvation such as making soups from tree branches just so they have something to eat, this is not ideal diet but it’s better than going hungry. Also because our population is getting bigger the demand for food is getting higher every year there are less resources and land to be able to feed everyone around the world and it’s becoming a serious issues to a point where there might be another food riot just like the one during great depression. There has been many different programs that try to help out by delivering food to the people that don’t have any and can’t get any food but it’s still not enough because every day there are more people that are in need for food. Now it’s even hard for farmers to be able to keep their farms because the prices for fossil fuels are going up which means its more money that they spending on growing crops and they don’t end up making any profit. Now a big issue that we have to face is ethanol fuel program worsening the world food crisis
