Great article. All of us who can should be looking at ways of growing food by ourselves or with others and organising in our communities. The food situation is not going to improve seeing what is happening supply and climate wise. We must ask our state governments, councils and other local authorities and organisations to support, prepare and set up community gardens and similar systems so that at least the most vulnerable (which will increase) have access to fresh food they can afford. We should no longer just see this as niche practice. We are lucky in Australia we still have quite a lot of open space available which we should use for habitat for native species and to grow food.
