A crash course in changing the world.
According to Stanford University, researchers believe that half the world's population face major food crisis in 2100. He said wheat makes up one-quarter of the calories consumed in India, but growth in wheat yields there has been stagnant for the last decade.
Temperature increases from climate change are expected to be less in equatorial regions than at higher latitudes, but because average temperatures in the tropics today are much higher than at mid-latitudes, rising temperature will have a greater impact on crop yields in the tropics. Recent research at the University of Washington has shown that even with much smaller temperature increases in the tropics, the impacts will be greater there because life in the tropics does not encounter much temperature variation and so is less adaptable. That makes an even stronger case to begin searching now for ways to deal with substantially warmer conditions.
Even internationally, countries are facing so many food challenges and even how to retrieve the nearest food supply. By setting up soup kitchens to help the hungry and homeless or even meals on wheels can help reduce starvation and human suffering.
