We are at an unprecedented historical moment where three crises converge economic, energy and ecological. Unemployment, climate change, loss of biodiversity, overexploitation of resources, social inequality, price volatility of raw materials, and the more than expected rise in the price of energy are sources of instability for our society. In the current context, the only way to guarantee the well being of citizens is to reduce vulnerability to the shocks derived from the triple crisis.

The main objective of this study is to empirically examine the link between agricultural production and economic growth in Cote d’Ivoire based on poverty alleviation. The results demonstrate that government investment in agricultural sector play a significant and important role in the economic development both in short and long term, hence promoting living standard in Cote d’Ivoire. The paper also reveals that socio-economic and natural factors influence national agriculture production level in long run. As recommendation the study suggests that government and the private sector must combine their investment efforts on agricultural product transformation in order to boost national gross production by the sector mechanization. This reform could help to avoid agricultural sector dependency to natural phenomena like rain and drought.

Assignment 2: Whitepaper on Food Security
Due Week 7 and worth 110 points
The members of the United Nations found great value in the whitepaper you provided on population growth. They are now asking you to expand the whitepaper to include global food security as it relates to population growth and poverty. Read the overview and provide an assessment based on the questions below.
I. Overview
We can define global food security as the effort to build food systems that can feed everyone, everywhere, and every day by improving its quality and promoting nutritional agriculture (1). That said, there are certain practices that can advance this project:
1. Identifying the underlying causes of hunger and malnutrition
2. Investing in country-specific recovery plans
3. Strengthening strategic coordination with institutions like the UN and the World Bank
4. Encouraging developed countries to make sustained financial commitments to its success
We must bear in mind that more than 3 billion people—nearly one-half of the world’s population—subsist on as little as $2.50 a day, with nearly 1.5 billion living in extreme poverty on less than $1.25 a day. According to the World Health Organization, the United Nations, and other relief agencies, about 20,000 people (mostly children) starve to death in the world every day, for a total of about 7 million people a year. In addition, about 750 million (twice the population of the United States) do not have access to clean drinking water, meaning that some one million people die every year from diarrhea caused by water-borne diseases.
The earth’s population has grown since it reached 7 billion in 2010. It is expected to reach 8 billion in 2025, 9 billion in 2040, and 11 billion by the end of the 21st century (2). If the demand for food is predicted to rise 50% by 2030 and 70% by 2050, the real problem is not necessarily growing enough food, but rather making that amount available to people. Moreover, food illnesses are prevalent, with nearly 600 million reported cases of foodborne diseases each year. These mainly affect children but can also negatively impact the livelihood of farmers, vendors, trade associations, and ultimately, can reduce the Gross Domestic Product (national income) of a country. These issues can impose tremendous human, economic, social, and fiscal costs on countries, so addressing them allows governments to devote more resources to making desperately needed infrastructure improvements that raise the quality of life for everyone.
It is not enough to have adequate supplies of food available. Policies that focus exclusively on food production can exacerbate the problem, particularly if, to satisfy the need for quantity, the quality of the food is left wanting.
Reasons for Food Insecurity
Certainly, poverty and the contributing systemic internal conditions are the driving factors behind keeping adequate food resources from reaching people, but it is only one of several. Others are.
A photograph of the decisive decade we are facing, the perfect storm of environmental, economic and growth crisis we are facing and some possible ways to help the transition from this old unsustainable system to a new world order sustained by a new approach of global prosperity, justice and sustainability.

Assignment 3a Threats to the Global EnvironmentCongratula.docxdanielfoster65629
Assignment 3a: Threats to the Global Environment
Congratulations! The United Nations has hired you as a consultant on global issues.
Many of the UN members are not satisfied with the progress of the Millennium Development Goals.
They feel that the goals focus on the wrong issues. There is a disconnect between what issues the
UN developed countries believe are priorities and what many developing countries feel the
prioritized issues should be. For example, the country of Burundi has asked that one of the goals
be focused on food security. Austria, however, is adamant that the major current global issue is to
mediate ceasefires in countries in the midst of a civil war.
You have been asked to provide an unbiased perspective and identify the four issues you feel most
impact the global environment. You will present your findings at the next UN General Assembly.
Your goal is to provide a history of each issue, the number of countries affected, and the effects of
this threat to the world population.
Of the eight major threats listed below, choose the four that you consider the most critical.
Energy sources Civil war
Globalization Poor health of entire populations
Lack of educational opportunities Cultural taboos
Inappropriate uses of technology Climate change
For your presentation to the United Nations:
1. Develop a minimum of four slides per issue for a minimum total of 16 slides.
2. Provide at least a paragraph on each slide (in the notes section) to explain the reason this
information is relevant to the UN’s assessment.
a. To review how to do any of the required assignment deliverables in PowerPoint,
please refer to your Lynda.com account or reach out to your instructor ahead of time.
3. For each issue, create a graph or chart to analyze the data you have collected.
4. Cite at least five credible sources excluding Wikipedia, dictionaries, and encyclopedias.
This course requires use of Strayer Writing Standards (SWS). The format is different compared to
other Strayer University courses. Please take a moment to review the SWS documentation for
details. (Note: You’ll be prompted to enter your Blackboard login credentials to view these
standards.)

If the demand for food is predicted to rise 50% by 2030 and 70% by 2050, the real problem is not necessarily growing enough food, but rather making that amount available to people. Moreover, food illnesses are prevalent, with nearly 600 million reported cases of foodborne diseases each year. These mainly affect children but can also negatively impact the livelihood of farmers, vendors, trade associations, and ultimately, can reduce the Gross Domestic Product (national income) of a country. These issues can impose tremendous human, economic, social, and fiscal costs on countries, so addressing them allows governments to devote more resources to making desperately needed infrastructure improvements that raise the quality of life for everyone.
It is not enough to have adequate supplies of food available. Policies that focus exclusively on food production can exacerbate the problem, particularly if, to satisfy the need for quantity, the quality of the food is left wanting.
Reasons for Food Insecurity
Certainly, poverty and the contributing systemic internal conditions are the driving factors behind keeping adequate food resources from reaching people, but it is only one of several. Others are discussed next.

1. Chapter 3
Numbers of population growth :
World population is expected to reach 8.3 billion by 2025 and 10 billion by 2050
Why the population growth are not the main problem ?
This view point argues that the main problem facing the world is not population
grows, but such as :
1- The unequal distribution of world resource
2- The unequal population distribution
3- Lack of development strategies
Malthus Theory or Malthus Trap :
Malthus argued that population world grow at a geometric rate (e.g. , 1 , 2 , 4 , …)
due mainly to a lack of conscious restrains on fertility. Meanwhile, food would
grow at an arithmetic rate (e.g., 1 , 2 , 3 , …)
It dose not take into account the role and impact of technological
Explain the stage of demographic transition :
1) The preindustrial stage : both high death and high birth rates. EX:
very poor country
2) The transitional stage : resulting in lowered death rates, but birth
rates remain high. Ex: development country
2. 3) the industrial stage : when the birth rate drops due to modernization
4) the postindustrial stage : below zero population growth
What are the problem of population growth ?
Economic problem associated with rapid population growth
:
1) Insufficient food production
2) Growing poverty in LDCs
3) Low level of per capita income
4) Unemployment
