Governments are now looking for solutions, as exemplified in a new report 'Food Matters' to which Outsights recently contributed. The food story is shaped by many connecting forces, as we try to balance the solutions to carbon emissions (e.g. switching to biofuels) with the need to feed the increasing global population. If the next 'Green Revolution' can deliver less energy and water intensive agriculture, food may no longer be as scarce as anticipated today. The connections between resources and their links with other issues (growth, climate, technological change) puts resource availability at the heart of current scenario thinking, as in the recent 'Scenarios for the Global Economy to 2030'.

| - Governments are now looking for solutions, as exemplified in a new report 'Food Matters' to which Outsights recently contributed. The food story is shaped by many connecting forces, as we try to balance the solutions to carbon emissions (e.g. switching to biofuels) with the need to feed the increasing global population. If the next 'Green Revolution' can deliver less energy and water intensive agriculture, food may no longer be as scarce as anticipated today. The connections between resources and their links with other issues (growth, climate, technological change) puts resource availability at the heart of current scenario thinking, as in the recent 'Scenarios for the Global Economy to 2030'. This is part of Outsights 21 Drivers for the 21st Century ™, a future-orientated scan of the 21 key forces shaping this century.
