“Perfect storm” looms for world’s food supplies: Oxfam Posted: 31 May 2011 1522 hrs PARIS: Oxfam called on Tuesday for an overhaul of the world’s food system, warning that in a couple of decades, millions more people would be gripped by hunger due to population growth and climate-hit harvests. A “broken food system” means that the price of some staples will more than double by 2030, battering the world’s poorest people, who spend up to 80 per cent of their income on food, the British-based aid group predicted. “The food system is buckling under intense pressure from climate change, ecological degradation, population growth, rising energy prices, rising demand for meat and dairy products and competition for land from biofuels, industry, and urbanization,” Oxfam said in a report. It added: “The international community is sleepwalking into an unprecedented and avoidable human development reversal.” Noting that some 900 million people experience hunger today, Oxfam said the tally of misery could rise still further when a “perfect storm” struck a few decades from now. By 2050, the world’s population was expected to rise by a third, from 6.9 billion today to 9.1 billion. Demand for food would rise even higher, by 70 per cent, as more prosperous economies demanded more calories. But by this time, climate change will have started to bite, with drought, flood and storms affecting crop yields that, after the “green revolution” of the 1960s, had already begun to flatline in the

Midvale, UT (PRWeb) January 1, 2011-eFoods Global, a network marketing company, wants to empower all people to be independent, secure, and prosperous. Thousands of people around the country have signed up as company representatives known as Independent Business Owners (IBOs), who are contributing to the company’s vision and empowering their friends and neighbors with independence and security through food.”Right now an unprecedented number of Americans are returning to a practice of our self reliant and independent forefathers, that is storing supplies of food,” says Steve Shenk, Founder and CEO of eFoods Global. “The events and circumstances we are facing here in America so are unfamiliar to most of us, but yet so serious, that we each must wisely choose how we will face our future. History has proven over and over again that food is the beginning solution to almost every major problem, particularly those involving independence, freedom, security, and yes, even survival. No political or economic programs will help Americans save their families with products that can become worth more than gold or any other currency.” Today, the world seems satisfied with fast food replacements for school lunch, and America has become one of the fattest countries on earth. Fortunately, people are starting to read labels and are becoming informed about food quality at every step of production-from the field to the table. Education is also growing for storable food; most of it tastes horrible, lacks nutrition, and contains filler ingredients. IBOs sell only the highest quality products from eFoods Global. The Company sources only the cleanest ingredients to produce pure, clean, delicious food any time you are ready to prepare it. “Frankly, I do not understand how others can market inferior products when they know that people are betting their lives on the food they purchased to deliver sound nutrition,” Steve Shenk continued. “If you’ve purchased from other companies, they’re banking their business on the fact that you’ll never have to open their product and live on it.”"The best part about our products is that food has universal demand-everyone needs it,” added Brad Stewart, President and Founder of eFoods Global. “Our food is perfect for tonight’s meal. Your children can help you make it-it’s that easy and only requires water. Significantly, it has a minimum 15O year shelf life, which makes it a fantastic savable food option. Yes, you can be prepared for a rainy day; I don’t know of any other company where distributors would be thrilled to have extra product in their basements.” An eFoods Global IBO can help you prepare today for a future of security reserves. In fact, the company is so certain that you will love its savory food that they invite anyone to try six free meals before they buy.
