Food Prices Continue to Climb, Additional Obstacles to Food Production Keep Pushing Costs Higher, Find the Solution in "Food Shock" Report from OffTheGridNews.net

CHAMBLEE, GA, May 31, 2011 (Press-News.org) There are a number of factors that have contributed to the increasing food prices that have pushed, according to the United Nations, an estimated 44 million people into poverty since last June. While traditional news outlets have addressed some of these factors, issues like higher gas prices coupled with poor weather conditions and a rash of natural disasters, there remain a number of causes that escape their attention and this could give people the false impression that if these issues were solved then the cost of food would become more manageable. The reality is the world food supply is in a desperate state and unless individuals take a more proactive approach to securing their own food source then the situation may only get worse. Recognizing that fully realizing the problems could push individuals into action OffTheGridNews.net has published a comprehensive special report entitled "Food Shock: Why 2011 Could Be The Most Important Year Ever To Plant A Family Garden", clearly outlining the dangers that lay ahead while providing a realistic solution that can be implemented to keep food on the table.

Looking at the current financial, political, environmental, and social climate across the globe is a clear indicator that the problems concerning the world's food supply will continue to mount. The meltdown of the markets in 2008-09, the rash of political unrest contributing to fuel production and availability, the impact of natural disasters and poor weather conditions on farmlands, and the continued disintegration of the middle class has significantly impacted the production of food. Thinking that these food price increases will simply right themselves is not only a dangerous gamble; it's a foolish bet that could result in fatal consequences.

The goal of the "Food Shock" report isn't to spread fear and panic but rather understanding and action on an individual level. This understanding is essential simply because increasing food prices are not the only byproduct of the current global condition. What the "Food Shock" report reveals is the disturbing truth behind genetically modified foods and the emergence of nanotechnology in food production; issues that traditional media outlets have ignored. Couple those issues with the continued promotion of ethanol as an alternative fuel source and it becomes easy to see how fixing one problem doesn't necessarily stop the damage caused by another problem; what is needed is a dramatic shift in how the world's food supply is produced and the answer that "Food Shock" delivers may be surprising.

By promoting the practice of self-sufficiency and self-reliance the "Food Shock" report details how the existing problems can be overcome and actually produce a number of benefits. Authored by noted survivalists Bill Heid and Brian Brawdy, the free "Food Shock" report delivers a clear message that taking personal responsibility for food production is not only within anybody's means but is actually necessary for our survival.
