I was reviewing my notes and came across the following note I sent the 1Well board on the Global Food Crisis and wanted to share it with you. On April 18th the NY Times ran the article on food security, “Across Globe, Empty Bellies Bring Rising Anger” (see excerpt below on India). In a general sense, it is a critical article because it highlights how U.S. and global policies (i.e., related to energy and biofuels) has a direct impact on other parts of the world (and vice a versa), and how large parts of the world population are not in control of satisfying the most basic human need - food.
