FOOD PRICE
INCREASES
HIGH ENERGY PRICES
OVERPOPULATION
FOOD PRICES
 If a trip to the grocery store seems expensive now,
just wait till 2016.
 Executives from grocery chains have warned
there's no immediate relief in sight from increased
food costs and a sinking loonie that have led to
higher prices, and researchers suggest
consumers will have to deal with more sticker
shock in the year ahead.
 The University of Guelph's Food Institute
estimates the average Canadian household spent
an additional $325 on food this year. On top of
that, consumers should expect an additional
annual increase of about $345 in 2016.
OVERPOPULATION
 World population is expected to grow another
1 billion in just 12 years, creating
unprecedented demand for food, water,
energy, and employment. Population growth is
expected to be most rapid in the 49 least
developed countries, which will double the size
from around 900 million today to 1.8 billion in
2050. There were only1 billion humans in
1804; 2 billion in 1927; 6 billion in 1999; and
7.2 billion by 2013. UN forecasts a range from
8.3 billion to 10.9 billion people by 2050, with
9.6 billion as the mid-projection.
Solutions of those problems
 Buy locally produced food
 Distribution of food fairly
 Stop wasting food
 Science & Technology (allow science to help
with food production< genetically modified
food
 Government regulation legislation passing
laws which helps manage food production
&consumption!!!!
THANKKKKK YOUUU
