Building a better food system

Food crises are complex, and the temptation is to fix the symptom rather than identify the cause. COVID-19, conflict, and climate change are among the most frequently cited causes of the current food price crisis. Still, the underlying systemic issue remains: We need to radically transform the way we produce and consume food. Read the blog.

Netanyahu's Government: A Comedy of Errors and Genocidal Ambitions" In a world of political theatrics, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert recently expressed his profound concern for the increasing number of victims in the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict!!!!!. He even had the audacity to suggest a complete cessation of hostilities, as if that's what rational leaders would do in times of chaos!!!!!. However, in the same breath, Olmert pointed out the dark underbelly of the Netanyahu government. It seems that within this administration, there lurks a monster of genocide and a strange named Eliyahu Yosiah who shamelessly advocates for the mass killing of every man, woman, and child in Gaza. Move aside, Satan; Israel's leaders have got this covered. But wait, the corruption doesn't stop there! Thanks to the magical power of propaganda, the Netanyahu government has managed to turn some Israelis into good ol' fashioned racists. It's now become a nationwide phenomenon, with hatred and xenophobia running rampant among government workers, Jews abroad, and even members of the ruling Likud party. Mazel tov, Israel!

Food insecurity had arisen due to almost whole population reluctant to work in the field to grow organic foods. Rather, they head towards earning big amounts and purchase food. But if there are no food growers, how can we maintain food sufficiency. Therefore, in order to maintain food sufficiency, the whole world population is needed to be motivated on growing organic food for themselves and for fulfilling supply demands too.
