The Worlds food supply is dwindling and the most likely culprit is that damned Global Warming.
In a report by the International Food Policy Research Institute, titled "The World Food Situation", farm experts warn that the increase in global temperatures will cause a decrease in the entire worlds agriculture production with sub-Sahara Africa to be affected the most.
Released in Beijing, the report states: "World agricultural output is projected to decrease significantly due to global warming, and the impact on developing countries will be much more severe than industrialised nations. Africa is particularly vulnerable to climate change because of its high proportion of low-input, rain-fed agriculture, compared with Asia or Latin America."
The group urges representatives to take food issues into consideration when developing national and international climate change policies.
