    The world food authority under the UN is the FAO. Here is their website:

    if they quit exporting grain to the west to feed cattle, the people of the exporting countries could actually eat the grain that they produce. who'da thought?

    if all the veggies hung themselves the problem would be solved

    at the least, it'd give me more reason to eat more veggies once the wackos are gone

    Yeah, it is a myth. Now they're really ratcheting up the propaganda about how meat consumption is causing global warming. Total bullshit.

    i thought the western world was in excess? so much food is thrown away by those big supermarkets. besides with all the long term freeze storage they apparently do with our fruits and veges (which makes them taste like crap) i doubt we'll be in trouble anytime soon. i plan to have my own vege patch when i buy a house!

    I think the meat-lentils-ometer is very much more tilted towards the 'people eat far too much meat' side though.

    Haha. Those documentaries slay me. There is no such thing as shortages. 800 million people are starving as we speak, and some of them in the western world.

    Feeding everyone would simply mean hyperinflation and the collapse of the capitalist mode of production.
