      World hunger. I think that issues such as global warming and over-population are also very important, and will have serious implications on our future, but people are dying every day due to hunger, while others have so much food that they end up throwing it away!

      Over-population is the biggest threat, the one that makes the other threats worse.

      I think food security is the biggest problem, but now that we have more people over-nourished than under-nourished I don’t think producing more food in the western world is exactly the answer. I believe every country should be able to produce enough food to feed its population even in difficult climate condition so what is needed the development of new crops and technology adapted to each country but also the improvement of the distribution of food so that less food is wasted in certain part of the world and lacking in others.
