The organic/non genetically modified food movement has been quickly gaining steam as of late. Agriculture currently is not fullfilling the world wide demand causing widespread starvation (just ask Sally Struthers…). Considering that yields are significantly lower (and more expensive) with organic farming than mainstream farming methods I ask the following two questions. What percentage of world food demands are being met now, and what percentage would be met if all farming became organic/non-GM?

And support local farms? I live in an area where this is very possible. But it seems like no one my age has a great interest in agriculture and natural foods. I guess you could say I am passionate about gardening, and I am very interested in food sciences. But what’s something that I can contribute to and make a big difference? I want to create a food revolution for kids my age, but I just don’t see how.
