Re: Hmmmm
There is currently a world food shortage of catastrophic proportions. Leading up to the summer of 2007, there were roughly 1 billion people living at or below the malnutrition line. However, an increase in use of crops to create biofuels, the rising costs of oil, and bad economic conditions world-wide have cut the supply and affordability of food for many more people. It is estimated that by summer 2008 an additional 700 million people will be added to the ranks of the malnurished [Economist, 4/19/08].
