FOOD SCARCITY CONCEPT MAP
HUMANS DIET
OVER POPULATION
If the entire world followed, the American dietary example less than half of the current global population, could be fed adequately
In the United States, a typical person consumes about 25% to 30% of his or her kilocalories from animal products
In Latin America, typical Latin Americans consume about 10% of their kilocalories from animal sources
OBSTACLES
Enhancing soil fertility for increased food cultivation requires a significant quantity of fertile soil to ensure effective cultivation.
If all available soil resources are utilized, it may result in additional impacts, including deforestation and damage to other natural ecosystems.
The cultivation process will necessitate an excessive use of chemicals such as fertilizers and herbicides to sustain the agricultural practices.
Global climate change is this placing weather patterns, causing localized droughts and floods
SOLUTIONS
One potential approach involves a substantial increase in global food production to ensure equitable distribution of resources.
Alternatively, controlling the exponential growth of the global population is another option to address the issue.
Encouraging the expansion of grain production while refraining from feeding animals that humans consume can help mitigate the loss associated with grain consumption for animal feed.
