Louise Fresco's presentation of "Feeding the Whole World" showed interesting view of sustainability of food supplies today. Today, we produce more food than ever before - and eat more than ever before. I believe that sustainability of food supply is the most important issue of sustainability. Without food, we simply die.
According to Fresco, today's society is the only society in history when only a little population is working on food production. Technically, it is very dangerous - only a handful of people are supporting more than 6 Billion people. Of course, we can not change today's society back to agricultural society. What she wanted to talk about was that we must use the food wisely we produce. Healthy is one of them. What is the point of making low quality food when we need healthy food?
