Looming food crisis

The state has never taken food shortages seriously because of the false security net—the Indian market.

It’s been 13 years since Home —a documentary by Yann Arthus-Bertrand, a French photographer famous for his Earth from Above footage—debuted in 2009. The documentary aimed to highlight how humanity was threatening the ecological balance on earth and show where our planet was headed in 10 years due to the impacts of climate change. The same year, the United Nations held the Copenhagen Climate Change Conference , which formed the Copenhagen Accord, demonstrating a clear political intent to limit carbon emissions and respond to climate change. The accord also indicated a will to support the developing countries adapt to climate impacts. Unfortunately, over the last 13 years, we’ve been swamped by rhetoric but no concrete actions at the global level, especially by the developed countries responsible for most emissions. In a display of wilful recklessness, fossil fuel industries continue to pump resources and expand the industry for more profit . As a result, we’re now experiencing the consequences as predicted by Home .
