Lester R. Brown "Outgrowing the Earth: The Food Security Challenge in an Age of Falling Water Tables and Rising Temperatures"

A 1 degree Celsius rise in temperature can reduce grain yields by 10 per cent, which means that energy policy is now directly affecting crop production, and the link between our fossil fuel addiction, climate change and food security is now clear. In a world still adding 76 million people per year and where the historical rise in land productivity has slowed by half since 1990, while water tables drop, eradicating hunger may depend as much on family planners as on farmers. The bottom line is that future food security depends not only on efforts within agriculture, but also on energy policies that stabilize climate, a worldwide effort to raise water productivity, the evolution of land-efficient transport systems and population policies that seek a humane balance between population and food. Outgrowing the Earth advances our thinking on food security issues that the world will be wrestling with for years to come.
