Forums on the food crisis - all welcome
Pls forward

Food for thought - forums that challenge the market

Food prices are rocketing worldwide. In the Third World, the poor are being pushed towards starvation and are responding with riots. In Australia, workers are paying more to eat just as interest rates and petrol prices squeeze family budgets. Why have prices shot up? What is happening worldwide? And what are the solutions that will guarantee food for all?
