The Wire

With world food prices setting new records, will the world be able to feed itself in 2050? CEO of World Vision Australia, Tim Costello, was in Adelaide yesterday to answer this question at a forum on the global food crisis. He said what we are experiencing here is nothing compared to the inflation they’re experiencing in developing countries. The 2 billion people living on less than $2 a day simply cannot aford to eat. Mr Costello spoke to The Wire about his experiences in developing countries and what we can do to help.
