“The genocide will not necessarily take the form of war, or death camps. Most likely it will take the form of ecocide, in which landscapes are devastated and the populations that live there slowly starve or turn upon each other savagely because there isn't enough food or water to go around.” WarEnoughFormTurnsWaterPopulationLandscapeCampsGenocideDevastatedDeath Camps Author:Arundhati Roy
“New York is where it is going to begin, I think. You can see it coming. The insect experts have learned how it works with locusts. Until locust population reaches a certain density, they all act like any grasshoppers. When the critical point is reached, they turn savage and swarm, and try to eat the world. We're nearing a critical point. One day soon two strangers will bump into each other at high noon in the middle of New York. But this time they won't snarl and go on. They will stop and stare and then leap at each others” ThinkingWorldTryingTwoCertainTurnsMiddleNew YorkGoes OnOne DayPopulationStrangerCriticalStaringExpertsLeapSavagesInsectsNoonBumpsDensitySwarmsGrasshoppers Author:John D.

“It's a moral imperative, it's an economic imperative, and it is a security imperative. For we've seen how spikes in food prices can plunge millions into poverty, which, in turn, can spark riots that cost lives, and can lead to instability. And this danger will only grow if a surging global population isn't matched by surging food production. So reducing malnutrition and hunger around the world advances international peace and security - and that includes the national security of the United States.” IfsWorldStatesTurnsGrowsUnitedMoralPovertyMillionsUnited StatesEconomicSecurityDangerCostInternationalHungerPopulationProductionsAround The WorldSparksNational SecurityImperativesReducingRiotPlungeInstabilityMatchedMalnutritionInternational PeacePeace And SecurityFood Production Author:Barack Obama
