Is it just a temporary spasm that we are having global food riots right now? With population continuing to rise the price of food and the fuel to transport it to the urban centres where most of us now live will surely continue to rise. It reminds me of this post I wrote a while ago, and it worries me. We had better pay attention to this one folks.
