Fact of the Day (3)

Humanity produces more food today than ever before and the planet is capable of growing tremendously more food than we need. The potential is out there. According to a study by the International Food Policy Institute, the world can produce a maximum of 72 billion tons of grain on current farmlands. We only currently produce 2.6 billion tons. 27 times more food than the planet grows today!
