We Already Grow Enough Food For 10 Billion People
A new a study from McGill University and the University of Minnesota published in the journal Nature compared organic and conventional yields from 66 studies and over 300 trials. Researchers found that on average, conventional systems out-yielded organic farms by 25 percent — mostly for grains, and depending on conditions.

Embracing the current conventional wisdom, the authors argue for a combination of conventional and organic farming to meet “the twin challenge of feeding a growing population, with rising demand for meat and high-calorie diets, while simultaneously minimizing its global environmental impacts.”

Unfortunately, neither the study nor the conventional wisdom addresses the real cause of hunger.

Cause capitalism...

Same reason why homelessness exist even though we got empty houses all over the damn world...

Same reason why unemployment exist even though we got plenty of jobs that need to be done...

Same reason why poverty exist even though we got enough wealth to go around...

This is called efficiency...and market allocation...

If the world gave up meat...we would have more than enough (not that I'm on my vegan shyt :whoa: but I've done it in the past).

we grow food, to feed animals, so we can eat animals, instead of growing food to feed people.

But to be honest, we can't talk about "world selfishness" until we address individual selfishness. Everyone wants everyone else to fix the world's problems but I guarantee most people who reply in this thread would be :dahell: :camby: if asked to give up certain comforts so that strangers could have more :yeshrug:
