The world we know is getting smaller all the time. Not that the planet is shrinking, just that humans are multiplying at an alarming rate. Off the topic in mind, but easily integratable is how we get third world country folk to learn the importance of scaling their families from as high as fifteen to families of between three and five.
As the international population escalates it seems less and less are attempting to contribute to what is sure to become a food crises at some point. South Africa is one such an example where the farming sector is being diminished in many ways. Farmers in South Africa at this point are murdered at an alarming rate in what is sadly racially driven political agenda fueled by the current government. Many other African countries that use to produce a great deal of food are now very dormant in that field. Farms that in turn could be feeding these rapidly expanding populations now doing nothing while so many are starving. Allowing these farms to become unproductive has seen many work opportunities reduced with every passing year which now has created another enormous problem.
Population numbers rise while jobs and food security drop along with extreme spikes in all costs of living which leads to an extreme increase in violent crime. Desaster recipes in countries with very rich soil which is perfect for the production of all and any types of food sources which will also in turn strengthen the economies and secure jobs for a very many people.
As third world countries go, why is Mexico increasing in agricultural production, India busy dropping in agricultural percentages and Africa is falling through the floor?
Why can some people farm up the side of a mountain and some with wide open spaces just not manage to make a go of it?
We have the UN running around Africa feeding people who could be producing their own food, so doing creating their own jobs and thus improving their own economies. Why why why? Why is the world enabling poverty and hunger instead of empowering people to be able to feed themselves? Why are the peacekeepers not taking out the dictators who force their own people into poverty and hunger?
What could possibly be the reason those who talk about helping all the time seem to end up doing the opposite. Some food for thought along the lines of teach a man to fish.
The world has a lot to think about and even more to do. Codling equals decay.
