					<description><![CDATA[There are two problems.
The short-term problem is that our current food system is deficient in the microbes which form our gut biome and essential minerals which have led to an epidemic of chronic or non-infectious diseases,  obesity, diabetes, heart attacks and dementia.
The longer-term problem is our current food system relies on the exploitation of finite resources, particularly water, which is aggravated by climate change and shortages of key minerals which are being exhausted.  Phosphorous is the most urgent.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Look around the world and back over time and you will see the great riddle of three communities.
We see low tech communities with a poor food system, lack of hygiene and medical support where people die before their natural life from infectious diseases.  This is clearly bad
We see rich high tech communities with a sophisticated food system, good hygiene and medical support and where people die before their natural life from non-infectious or chronic diseases.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[With all our modern technology and automated production capacity, we should only need to work a couple of days a week to have everything we need and live a healthy life right to the end of our natural life.
But we are not so what went wrong?  There is nothing wrong with the technology - we just don’t know how to apply it for the benefit of the community.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The global food crisis is not some threat for the future, it is here right now, it is not just about poor people starving in some remote country it is about people in rich countries suffering from chronic diseases, such as obesity, diabetes, heart attacks and dementia.

It is man-man made, if you face having a leg amputated it is a direct result of the food crisis – the wrong sort of food from our modern food system.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Will the power of mega-corporations that control our food system reign supreme leaving the community fat and sick and destroying civilisation as we know it as the supply of essential minerals is exhausted or will the community rise up and unite so common sense prevails?
Let me start with the story of the mouse and the elephant.]]></description>
