A Project for a New Global Future

The unprecedented speed at which the global food crisis has started to spiral out of control is indeed good news for NGF members.

Never before in history has this happened on such a scale and it is truly exciting to know that
wiping out a good 2 billion humans in one shot is well within our grasp.

However, it will require a lot of hard work from those of you who have done such a good job at making all the contributing factors to the problem come together at the same time.

The problem is that once people start to die of starvation, supply goes up, prices come down, people stop dying. You can do your part to help to triple prices over the next year.

- If you can afford it, eat as much as you possibly can. Many of the worlds poor spend over half their income on food. Americans and Europeans should try to match this. At minimum you should be spending $1000 per month per person on food.

- If you are a farmer, get on the ethanol bandwagon and help make biofuel. If switching to a crop such as corn is not viable, grow any kind of food crop, dry it, press it into blocks, and sell it as a “renewable home heating fuel” people can burn it in their fireplaces during the winter. You should have no problems competing with the price of home heating oil

- Protest GMO foods. Genetic engineering promises better yields, more resistance to pests and drought, and less need for expensive fertilizers. GMO food = cheap food. Do everything you can to ensure you local government bands all GMO crops and imports.

Thanks for all your efforts, keep it up!!!
