I've read a few articles explaining that a food crisis is coming, I want to tell you something about it. There will be no food crisis for me.
Price of pasta, price of cooking oil, rice or meat will increase 20%? 30%?
That's all right. I don't care much. I can handle it, just like most people in developed countries. We don't spend much on food, increasing that budget by a third is perfectly fine.
The problem will be with the poor countries, but I wonder: is it a problem, or a solution?
There were 100 millions people living in Africa in 1900. Now, there are over 1,500 millions people there. I know that some people live a in a fantasy world thinking that there will be food, jobs, modern housing and all creature comforts for every human, but that won't happen. We live in a finite world, and the population just cannot grow without limit. Number one rule of the world has always been the survival of the fittest...
Would you wanna volunteer to starve in a food crisis to solve overpopulation? I don’t think so, so it’s just dumb to wish this onto other people. Survival of the fittest doesn’t really apply anymore, because we’re all dependent on the system and people around us. If someone would just throw you into africa now, you would suffer the same fate as them, there’s nothing special about you. So i think we should help where we can and use our hands and minds to create more resources for everyone as best as we can. Even if we don’t achieve it, trying will do more, than just hoarding food and preventing others from getting anything and starving.
