We live in a world of food mountains and famines, where some people suffer from obesity while millions die of hunger. This book examines this inequality and looks at the difficult decisions faced by governments and organizations and asks what we as individuals can do to help. "Food Supply" examines the development of agricultural technology, food distribution systems, food aid, global trading, differing global diets, GM foods and biotechnology. Opposing viewpoints are given throughout to provide opportunities for discussion and debate.
