Ratchet Effect A. World Food Bank: moves wealth from rich to poor countries B. Goal: for a population to equilibrate below the carrying capacity C. Natural: go beyond carrying capacity: diebacks D. If a poor nation can declare an “emergency” and receive food, a population escalator is formed; eventually the system collapses E. Benign demographic transition: unrealistic 1. GNP rises, birth rate will fall 2. GNP is rising everywhere 3.
The issue of scarcity is that human’s wants are more or less unlimited. So, as consequence to an increase of immigrants in Australia, resources will become more scarce, and eventually, the resources we use for food will become absolutely scarce. This will become a concern globally, as Australia currently exports 60% of the food produced. From this, a global interdependence has been developed for such exports internationally and the monetary value it carries for Australia. Therefore, the economic problem will incur, causing an extreme decrease in the country’s GDP.
The farmers would withhold rice from the markets when the prices. With the shorten supplies domestic rice prices rose more than 60% in 1998 from May to August triggering panic. The demand decreased. No one could afford the high prices rice because the taxes on selling and trading were lower. The government would establish price for the poor to buy rice to the United States food stamp programs (Flynn S. & Brue S, Campbell A. Cronell,
World hunger, pollution, and population growth all contribute to the increasing tensions felt around the world. World hunger has been created by an unequal distribution of food and resources to the people of the world. Wealthier nations, like the United States, consume more than their fair share of resources, and throw away millions of dollars of edible food each day. This wasted food could have fed starving people in areas like Ethiopia. Another problem with food distribution is that governments, like those in Africa, Asia, and Latin America are exporting crops to countries willing to pay higher prices as opposed to feeding its own people (Haviland, 2011, 2008).
Discuss how food availability and distribution, technological developments and societal factors impact on food equity. Up to more than half population of the world experienced food inequity due to living in isolated areas, lack of facilities, and environmental factors. While the other half of the population live in large settlements, often on food producing islands and is fuelled by the lure of food exports and imports. There is currently enough food being produced in the world to feed everyone, but due to unjust distribution, the rate of chronically hungry people is increasing. Food equity means equal access to nutritious foods and food security exists to all people, at all times, have physical and economic access to enough safe and nutritious foods for a healthy lifestyle.

“Over the past few decades, the food and home environments have changed tremendously. Environmental influences that affect eating behaviors include the changing nature of the food supply; increased reliance on foods consumed away from home; food advertising, marketing, and promotion; and food prices” (St-Onge, Keller, & Heymefield, 2013). Obese children are affecting the world of microeconomics. Microeconomics is solely dependent on how much and what is consumed by individuals. With many children experiencing obesity, the economy markets are affected because the way children are forced to change the way they eat.
Driving 45 miles to a store equals a total of 90 miles. Many families have a hard enough time paying for the groceries themselves and adding extra expenses causes more stress on the individual. One in three children born in the year 2000 will develop Type 2 diabetes. That statement alone makes me ask many questions. In the film, two factors were shown related to why diet-related illness is increasing in young people.
He discusses that although the population is growing, our planet may not have all the resources it needs to accommodate the growing population. Kunzig states that with the increasing population will the planet have the resources it needs to support our growing population? It is discussed that the death to birth rate is completely unbalanced with 5 births to 2 deaths every second, which is causing our population to grow drastically. It is also discussed how the life span has also gone up around the world and by the year 2045 there will be 9 billion people living on this planet. Both are very big issues to worry
