Hunger in Indonesia during World War II (forum.axishistory.)
In 1800, the population of Java was around five million.
Now it is over 100 million.
Wardi lives in a very crowded part of Java.
He has a small field and a small shop.
Using compost instead of artificial fertilizer increases organic matter in the soil and holds moisture.
Wardi does have a little education and does have a reasonable income.
He has only two children and plans no more.
His mother had eight children. She never went to school and had a very low income.
Wardi uses animal manure on his field. Fertiliser made from fossil fuels has become rather expensive.
Indonesians
Wardi's neighbour Aziz has not been to school and he has a very small income.
Aziz has six children.
There is some evidence that levels of education and income are important when it comes to dealing with problems of population and food supply.
Better educated, better paid people are more likely to choose to have small families, particularly in areas where food supplies are limited.
Some people get more than their fair share of the world's resources.
Not so far from where Wardi and Aziz live, a large quantity of farm land has been taken over for the building of a golf course, a shopping mall and luxury houses.
In the USA, people tend to consume more than their fair share of the world's food.
Very large quantities of grain are used to produce expensive US beef and used to produce biofuels for cars.
Increasing demand for cattle feed and biofuels has caused deforestation in the tropics.
Reportedly, there is a problem with climate change.
Himalayan glaciers that provide water for hundreds of millions of people in China and India could vanish by 2035.
In southern Africa, the corn harvest could drop by 30 percent, due to lack of water.
Ultimately, it's all about people having the right ideas.
We need to persuade people that they do not need to produce lots of children, especially if they live in an area where there is a food and population crisis.
Chief famine areas in red and orange.
The world does have a food and population crisis, according to National Geographic (nationalgeographic/) (Feature Article)
Among the points made by National Geographic:
1. Between 2005 and the summer of 2008, the price of rice rose fivefold.
2. According to Joachim von Braun, director general of the International Food Policy Research Institute in Washington, "Agricultural productivity growth is only one to two percent a year. This is too low to meet population growth and increased demand."
3. Hotter growing seasons and increasing water scarcity are likely to reduce future harvests in much of the world.
4. Many scientists believe we need another green revolution.
Preferably a green revolution that does not damage soils and water supplies.
5. Thomas Malthus believed that human population increases at a geometric rate, doubling about every 25 years if unchecked, while agricultural production increases arithmetically—much more slowly.
6. In 1943 around four million people died in the Bengal Famine.
Then came the green revolution.
7. The green revolution involved industrial farming:
large fields growing just one crop, high-yielding varieties of grain, plenty of irrigation and plenty of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides.
8. The green revolution has led to problems:
Over-irrigation has led to steep drops in the water table.
Thousands of hectares of productive land have been lost to salinization and waterlogged soils.
The artificial pesticides and fertilizers appear to have poisoned drinking water and led to high rates of cancer.
Researchers have found pesticides in Punjabi farmers' blood, their water table, their vegetables, even their wives' breast milk.
The high cost of fertilizers and pesticides has got many farmers into debt.
One study found more than 1,400 cases of farmer suicides in 93 villages between 1988 and 2006.
9. Monsanto believes biotech will make it possible to double yields of Monsanto's core crops of corn, cotton, and soybeans by 2030.
However, so far, genetic breakthroughs that would free green revolution crops from their heavy dependence on irrigation and fertilizer have proved elusive.
10. Africa has not seen much of the green revolution, partly due to lack of infrastructure, corruption, and inaccessible markets.
Agricultural production per capita declined in sub-Saharan Africa between 1970 and 2000.
11. In Malawi they grow corn and most people live on less than two dollars a day.
In 2005 the rains failed.
Malawi decided to try the green revolution.
Since 2006 the Rockefeller Foundation and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation have raised nearly half a billion dollars to fund the Alliance for a Green Revolution in Africa.
There has been investment in 80 small villages clustered into about a dozen "Millennium Villages" throughout Africa.
Irrigation in Malawi
12. In 2008, a study called the "International Assessment of Agricultural Knowledge, Science and Technology for Development" concluded that the production increases brought about by science and technology in the past 30 years have failed to improve food access for many of the world's poor.
The six-year study, initiated by the World Bank and the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization, called for a shift in agriculture toward more sustainable and ecologically friendly practices that would benefit the world's 900 million small farmers, not just agribusiness.
13. University of California, Berkeley, professor Michael Pollan says:
"The only way you can have one farmer feed 140 Americans is with monocultures.
"And monocultures need lots of fossil-fuel-based fertilizers and lots of fossil-fuel-based pesticides.
"That only works in an era of cheap fossil fuels, and that era is coming to an end. Moving anyone to a dependence on fossil fuels seems the height of irresponsibility."
14. A shift has begun to small, underfunded, sustainable projects in Africa and Asia.

15. Vandana Shiva, an agroecologist, argues that small-scale, biologically diverse farms can produce more food with fewer petroleum-based fertilisers and pesticides.
Her research shows that using compost instead of artificial fertilizer increases organic matter in the soil and holds moisture.
16. In northern Malawi, in the village of Ekwendeni, they produce good food much more cheaply than the Millennium Villages.
The Soils, Food and Healthy Communities (SFHC) project gives out seeds and advice for growing nutritious crops like peanuts, pigeon peas, and soybeans, which enrich the soil by fixing nitrogen.
Canadian researchers found that the children involved in the project showed significant weight increases.
Malawi by Joachim Huber
17. The project's research coordinator, Rachel Bezner Kerr, opposes the big-money foundations that are pushing for a new green revolution in Africa.
She says:
"I find it deeply disturbing.
"It's getting farmers to rely on expensive inputs produced from afar that are making money for big companies rather than on agroecological methods for using local resources and skills. I don't think that's the solution."

Allegedly, the CIA plans to break up India.
The aim of the CIA is total global dominance for the USA.
And that means keeping countries like India and Pakistan weak and divided.
The CIA is anxious to blame the Mumbai Attacks on elements of Pakistan's spy service ISI, and a group called Lashkar, which allegedly is run by ISI.
But, ISI and the CIA have long worked as a team.

Hospital Bed, in India, by Don McCullin. The Indian government, caring little about its people, spends less than 1% of GDP on health care. Some Indian and Pakistani spooks would appear to care little about their fellow citizens.
According to Headley's account:
A Major Iqbal became Headley's main handler in Lahore.
Pakistani officials say they have not been able to identify Major Iqbal or confirm any involvement of military officers.
Major Iqbal called Headley from a phone number with a 646 area code (one used in the New York area), the report says.
Headley refers to a discussion with Major Iqbal "about the Denmark project."
The project was a plot to attack a Danish newspaper that had published caricatures of the Prophet Mohamed.
Headley plotted in Denmark and elsewhere in Europe under the direction of al Qaeda (the CIA), according to US court documents.

POLICE STORY ON MUMBAI ATTACKS STANDS SHATTERED
Mumbai Attackers were 'Hindus' and 'White Men'
On 4 January 2010, Wayne Madsen, at Online Journal, had an article entitled: Intelligence sources: Plane incident a false flag involving trinity of CIA, MOSSAD and RAW.
According to Wayne Madsen:
1. The Christmas Day flight 253 event was a false flag operation carried out by the CIA, Mossad, and India’s Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), according to Asian intelligence sources.
2. The CIA, Mossad, and RAW were behind the Mumbai Attacks of 2008.
3. On 28 December 2009, Rupee News reported the same three agencies, along with former Afghan KHAD intelligence agents, assassinated Benazir Bhutto.
The purpose being to destabilize Pakistan.
4. The eyewitness testimonies of Michigan attorney Kurt Haskell and his attorney wife Lori Haskell are being attacked by the corporate media.
Haskell and his wife witnessed a "well-dressed Indian man" arrange for Mutallab to board Delta 253 without a passport at the check-in desk at Schiphol.
Haskell told CBS News: "Only the Indian man spoke, and what he said was, this man needs to board the plane, and he doesn’t have a passport. And the ticket agent then responded saying you need a passport to board the plane, and the Indian man then said he's from Sudan. We do this all the time."
5. The security company that cleared Mutallab in Schiphol is ICTS, a firm that is headquartered in Israel and Amstelveen, Netherlands.
The firm also cleared attempted shoe bomber Richard Reid for a Miami-bound American Airlines flight from Paris in December 2001.
The Indian media (Headley's girlfriend crossed Wagah into India) tells us more about David Headley's 29-year-old Moroccan girlfriend-wife Faiza Outalha.
Indian investigators have found that Faiza travelled to Manali in Himachal Pradesh during a 2008 trip and befriended a US couple at the hill station.
The American couple also operated out of Goa, where they reportedly met Headley.
Israeli newspapers have said that Morocco's late king, Hassan II, allowed Mossad to set up a station in Morocco and develop close ties with Moroccan security forces. (King Hassan of Morocco: world leaders mourn a ruthless despot)

Reportedly, the CIA wants to break up India.
Terror attacks in India have been linked to 'fascist' Hindu groups, and others, reportedly doing the work of the CIA and Mossad.
In February of 2000, Indian intelligence officials detained 11 members of what they thought was an Al Qaeda hijacking conspiracy.
It was then discovered that these 11 'Muslim preachers' were all Israeli nationals ... India's leading weekly magazine, The Week, reported ( Aborted Mission Investigation: Did Mossad attempt to infiltrate ... ):

On 28 March 2010, The Milli Gazette had an article by historian Amaresh Misra entitled "Headley Saga: Mumbai attack was a joint IB-CIA-Mossad-RSS project"
The IB (Intelligence Bureau) is an Indian government spy agency, said to have been infiltrated by the CIA and Mossad.
The RSS is a 'fascist' Hindu organisation, said to be allied to the CIA and Mossad.
It should be noted that K S Sudarshan, former leader of the RSS, says that Sonia Gandhi of the Congress party works for the CIA. (Congress seeks apology from former RSS chief for remark "Sonia, a CIA agent" / SONIA GANDHI AND MANMOHAN SINGH OF THE CIA?)
According to Mishra:
1. In India's 2009 Parliamentary elections, India's English media expected Lal Krishna Advani to become India's next Prime Minister.

It should be noted that Headley's father worked for Voice of America, "a CIA front organisation".
Headley worked for the US Drugs Enforcement Administration.
1. The first tip about Headley to the US authorities came in 2001 in New York and was from a former girlfriend.
The ex-girlfriend reported that Headley supported dangerous extremists.
The New York inquiry was closed.
In 2002, Headley reportedly trained at a Lashkar camp in Pakistan.
2. In July 2002, the owner of a Philadelphia business, where Headley's mother was a regular customer, called the FBI to inform on David Headley.
The business owner reported that David Headley had told his mother he was training with terrorists.
"I figured the FBI would take it from there," the business owner said. "There was no follow-up. I never heard anything else about it."
The Philadelphia inquiry was closed.
Headley trained again in Pakistan in August 2002 and three times in 2003 and 2004, court documents show.
3. In 2005 Headley fell out with his New York wife.
The wife contacted the Joint Terrorism Task Force in New York and described Headley's ties to Lashkar.
She went into detail about his training, fundraising and work.
She offered to show the US officials his e-mails, an offer they rejected.
The New York task force closed the inquiry.
The task force didn't interview or monitor Headley.
An anti-terror expert said:
"You wonder why they didn't try to interview him for intelligence purposes.
"Why didn't they do a lookout at airports for him so he could be checked or interviewed when he was traveling? Why didn't they put him on a watch list?"
