  1. Now you can x ray plants to see the nutrients inside. So you can choose the healthy foods
  2. Poland announces total ban on Monsanto’s GM Maize. Good for them! France and Hungary in protest mode, India should take some lessons
  3. Instead of hanging out with SRK at Eden, Mamata should clean up the health system so babies stop dying
  4. Need to be both militarily and economically strong.currently we are neither. Corruption counters battle readiness-must be tackled asap
  5. Vedanta’s ad campaign on ‘Creating Happiness’ should be trashed for its blatant insensitivity. Displace the tribals and make them happy!
  6. Babies dying nonstop in Bengal. What is the pro-poor CM cum health minister doing? Blame game doesn’t help the kids and their parents
  7. Meal for 2 costs Rs 80000 at new delhi restaurant. Planning Commission fixes Rs 33 per day as above poverty line. Have we gone mad?
  8. Elephants are choosy about which rice fields to raid. They like tall plants with sweet smelling grains and soft stalks!
  9. India’s food security will be hammered by global warming. We need mission mode action to start coping plans in agriculture
  10. The turbulent rainfall patterns over the last 4-5 years shd convince climate skeptics that climate change is here
  11. Met dept says no drought. Large tracts of rainfed agriculture will lose their only crop if rains are deficient, even without a drought
  12. A comprehensive Food Security Bill needs to be drafted urgently, after detailed consultations with a range of actors
  13. Food security has 3 main aspects. Production of food, its distribution and the absorption of nutrients enabled by clean water and sanitation
  14. NAC led Food Security Bill finalized. It only distributes food. Shd be called a Revised PDS Bill. Food security is more than distribution
  15. Dark dystopia ahead if we don't turn this civilization around, and fast. Must change the too many negatives to positives to make it
  16. Food & water shortages, overpopulation, pollution, natural disasters. All happening together. The world is interconnected, no one gets away.
  17. As we placidly watch the food crisis getting worse, do we remember that earlier civilizations disappeared because of food shortages?
  18. We finish our groundwater & rivers run dry because glaciers have melted and climate change dries up the monsoon, how will we grow food?
  19. No lessons learned. Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, Fukushima, Jaitapur?
