There are many global problems in the world at this moment. One in particular is the food decreasing. We could potentially be in a food shortage in only a matter of years. According to the World Food Program USA there is food insecurity.
According to Save The Children the world is going into a food crisis. Food insecurity has gone up by 10% since 2022.
Due to inflation and population increasing everyday, the food market just can’t keep up. Time magazine states “We may not have enough food to produce in 2023.” Articles are now saying we will be in a food shortage by 2050.
According to the Mid Year Update of the Global Report on the Food Crisis, 238 million people are facing a shortage of food. Inflation is also a cause of this shortage. Due to prices rising, markets may not be able to purchase a large portion, leading to marketers losing business, and production of food decreasing.
People will not have to worry about the food shortage for a while. It is recommended to buy and store canned food such as canned beans, dried fruit, packaged food which only requires water, etc. Another way to prepare is to buy multiples of a food item. Lastly, preserve your food as long as possible.
