Publisher's Synopsis
In spite of all the technology of the modern world, we live in societies that are still fundamentally agrarian. If climate change makes agriculture all but impossible in large areas of the world there is a widespread risk of famine and solely relying on international trade to cover any shortfalls is unlikely to be a sound strategy to resolve this. Active engagement with the issue across society will be required to help mitigate the effects.
If Our Crops Fail, We Fail - Farming, Climate Change and how you can make a difference outlines what the nature of the issues facing agriculture from climate change are, which potential solutions are likely to have merit and practical steps we can take as individuals, communities and nations to help address the issue.
