Population explosion

I have also heard that food prices are also rising because of the increased world population and therefore there is a greater demand for food, which we are having trouble meeting.

As you say the demand for biofuels is putting the pressure on our crops, thus impacting on both our food supply and farm animal feeds.

Unless the world doesn't wise up soon and realise that we have to change how we behave and what we use then i truely fear for the future. Fingers crossed for a car engine that doesn't require liquid fuels and for people to waste less, well everything.
