Demand of food is increasing worlwide. What are the causes of this? What measures can the international community take to make sure the food supply is enough?

Due to the increase of the world populations as well as the change in the ways of

people

's lives, the need for

food

is growing. There might be some

food

shortages in the near future.

Therefore

, there is a discussion of what strategies some international countries can possibly have in order to ensure there is adequate

food

for everyone. One of the

first

problems is that the population of our planet is increasing every year due to different factors,

such

as better medical progress, healthy

food

, etc.

For example

, the population of China reached from 1 billion to 1.5 billion from 1980 to 2021, which need more

food

.

However

, the natural resources are constant or decreasing. As the

second

problem, individuals' habit of eating has changed nowadays since they tend to waste much of their

food

.

For instance

, in the united stated, an individual throws away ten kilograms of

food

each year, while in Africa, some

people

are living with less than one dollar every day. The international governments can play an important role in

food

shortages. One possible solution is that they can make their own citizens aware in terms of being thrifty.

For instance

, they can organize some campaigns against wasting edible resources.

Consequently

,

people

will consume more wisely. As the

second

possible solution, they should stop expanding built-up areas, and allocate them to farming.

Hence

, farmers can produce more

food

for residents. To conclude, there are different reasons that cause an increase in

people

's demand for

food

,

such

as the population and the way

people

consume. In order to confront

this

issue, international communities can step in with viable options

such

as increasing

people

's awareness or keeping some areas intact for cultivating.
