The Politics of Food

There are several articles, and links, so I have set up a separate page. Items will be added and updated as I have time (and get more information).

"the Battle to feed all of humanity is over. In the1970's the world will undergo famine
- hundred of millions of people are going to starve to death in spite of any crash
programs embarked upon now."----- Paul Erlich, "The Population Bomb", 1968

"...by 1980 the United States would see its life expectancy drop
to 42 because of pesticides, and by 1999 its population would drop
to 22.6 million." ----- Paul Ehrlich, 1969 "Eco-Catastrophe"
