Are The Right Messures Being Taken To Combat The Global Food Crisis?

We all concerned about controlling the Global Food Crisis and global warming. Brazil and USA are one of the leading countries involved in the production of bio fuels. Production of bio fuels is really a very good alternative source of energy because it helps the entire globe control global warming and Reduce the impact of increasing oil prices. However it should be noted that production of bio fuels is at the expense of more people going hungry especially with in poor nations. Bio fuel production has also attracted criticism from environmentalists who say it promotes the clearing of rain forests to grow palm oil for the production of bio fuel. I therefore wonder when Schafer, the head of the U.S. delegation recently said at the UN Food Summit in Rome that "If we focus on bio fuels we are not going to solve the problem." yes Bio fuel production is a positive objective but lets not forget that its causing many other hazards. It may not be the sole contributor towards the Food crisis but lets not forget its one of the "contributors" I therefore think that countries involved in production of Bio fuel need to strike a balance between feeding hungry people and having more alternative cleaner sources of energy. World nation still need to revise their world trade policies which are still contributing to the present Global Food Crisis especially European countries and USA.Thanks to United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon who uplifted this issue to world leaders on Tuesday at the UN Food Summit in Rome. Some of the compromises may be hurting but there is no direct solution to the present global food crisis. It is a matter of working together to get the best possible solutions if we are to increase food production to 50% by 2030.
