There are so many of us here but very few food supplies. Why? No more open fields/farms, just subdivisions and malls in what used to be farmlands. Kakalungkot. Kakagigil. Grrrr...

Experts have been warning us about his for years: global warming will cause changing weather patterns which will yield low harvests+population explosion = food shortage.

In the supermarkets, there is no hype about the buying of rice. Maybe because the people who go there have money to spend so they are not panicking. I'm not sure. I just hope there would be a solution to this, a long-term one, so we wouldn't end up like in Haiti. Sigh. Rachel, I have yet to see the lines by people buying the NFA rice.
