Seven billion people now inhabit the earth, yet almost one third of the earth's surface is desert and that desert is increasing by hundreds of square miles each year. World leaders are just beginning to wake up to the threat of mass starvation! One quarter of earth's inhabitants are directly suffering from droughts, floods, famines and other natural catastrophes and in the wake will come an unparalleled spread of diseases.
The tragedy is the world has waited too long, it is too late to turn back and undo the events that have pushed humanity to the brink of mass starvation. What most people do not realize is that the crisis is NOW, the world has not always been this way. Only a few centuries ago the population was only a fraction of what it now is. The rich soils of China, India, and the Russian Ukraine were providing the needed food supplies, minor periodic catastrophes were easily weathered.
Today the world is different, the land in underdeveloped countries is no longer capable of supplying the needs of its mounting inhabitants. The surplus food supplies of Europe, North America and Australia would vanish in a few months if evenly distributed to the billions in need. Now we have the return of drought to the United States and Australia. Our own supplies of food are precariously small, America's surplus would last the nation only months, that is how close the whole world is to catastrophe!
