My View on Global Food Crisis

Recently, people are talking about an urgent threat the global food crisis, and the year 2008 is even defined as The Year of Global Food Crisis.

The global food crisis, firstly, can be said to be triggered by the fast population growth in recent decades.

With more and more people to be fed, we have to find better ways to increase our agricultural yields.

Moreover, while we are striving for a higher civilization, the damages we have done to the environment make much of the world’s soil deteriorate. With the land yielding little, there is no wonder that people will go hungry.

Last but not least, many farmers in some countries are leaving the land because the cost of production exceeds the return.

Some of them work at jobs off the land, and some just lay waste the land altogether.

Solving the global food crisis is a big issue, and needs the concern and cooperation of every nation of the world.

On an individual level, we should be frugal about the food, and never waste a bit of it.
