We must start growing our own food. Period.

A Food Crisis going into the 21 Century? Pure Bunk! They pay farmers in America and elsewhere NOT to plant crops. SIMPLE mathematics would tell us long in advance of a impending food crisis and we could easily adjust accordingly in plenty of time. Remember Crops are seasonal. It makes no sense. UNLESS...you plan to use food as you do oil to control the population and perhaps cause a crisis of mass proportions...then sure, that makes plenty of sense.

the United Nations is a scam, over 50 years plus and you still have no food growing in 3rd world countries, WAKE UP TO THE REAL TRUTH, real action not enslavement of poor nations, the UN is all about depopulation, WAKE UP

It makes u think that our world leaders do not consider us lower humans necessary but something to get rid of. The people who live as survivalist and have planned for this were right! The world gov hopes u won't believe it and as a result die to decrease world population which is one of their objectives. Go to "the third way" about the Democrat Leftist ideas, and plans as they line up with EU's objectives.

well best advice i give is to get some normal seeds and plant your self a big garden of vegetables/fruits and drink bottled water buy some high powered assault rifles helmet/vest and emergency food supplies build yourself a shelter underground and hope for the best

If not enough food, money wont help. Money cant buy what does not exist.

lvll138inrs, You must be dreaming, gm foods will ruin the population of the earth, only the wealthy who can afford to have their own natural, healthy supply of food and water will survive!!

[truegreendragon]

will you all wake up! over population is a reason to come together and work it out FAIRLY, there wouldnt be a problem if people jus got rid of those that are using this as a tool. we are stuck in the echo of the nazi power trip so dont be too suprised if we see another holocaust/starvation. the truth will set us all free.

Have you read the studies on these Frankenfoods? Try higher infertility and cancer rates!

Many years ago, I became aware that all of our world populations were growing too too much. Eventually the world food supply will calapse most likly from weather pattens that have been proven to change in the past will continue to change. If we people in the world don't control populations then we shall have mass starvation, sooner or later. As oil supply decreases then cost will go up.

As this happens then more and more food will be used for fuel production. The starvation will get worse.

It is a sin to let any human being go hungry.

[blackdenali7]

the truth is...we have 6.7 billion people on the planet and gaining everyday...900 million are starving...2 billion are hungry...3 billion have to skip meals...and the rest don't care...get a heart...get a life...find jesus...the end is near
