Mission 2: Food Security - Imagine
In 2020, due to the sea levels have risen,
we had less vegetables and fruits in our meals. We had dinner at our
apartment in 2012-floors. Nowadays, we run out of our food, so we have
no choice but to cook our lovely dog. Besides, we find a can of corn

bodies! So the dishes we have today are called "fried dog", "stinky
corn", "delicious body". And all of… Continue
