I'd like to take a moment to remind that the hungry world is waiting that we need to feed by 2050!

Read this book: Abundance: the future is better than you think! Peter H. Diamandis
New evidence for abundance.

And so the next time I see the grow more to feed the hungry world 2050 propaganda I may not appreciate it quite as much.

Whats the guts of the book?

Cheap food the world will get fed scenario?

Abundance of food and protien at the moment but people still hungry.

When I was younger I think it was 2020....just sucked in another generation....
