Imagine if we got news that there was a little girl all alone in the desert. Hungry, thirsty & dirty. Would we save her? 100,000,000 MORE people have been affected by the Global Food Crisis and as a result 7 years of poverty relief was undone very quickly. We've never seen so many forces come together at the same time to put extraordinary pressure on the poorest people on the planet. These forces are climate change, fuels, greed, production and people. We're seeing this crisis hit hardest in Africa, India, Pakistan and Afghanistan. In this clip is Rev. Tim Costello, Dr David Lansley, Alana Smith & Melissa Doyle.
