We hit these days a psychological threshold which accelerates the collapse of industrial agriculture. Many gas stations across Europe showed for the first time ever a price of EUR 2 or more for one liter of petrol or diesel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While most consumers think about a rising bill to run their cars, the EUR 2 threshold has much more significance in regard to food production and security. We should be on red alert and take every possible measure to move away from industrial agriculture and build fossil fuel independent and small-scale food production systems. Otherwise, there is a high risk that we will not worry about how to fuel our cars, but about how to feed our bodies.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Economist Jeremy Rifkin<\/u><\/a>\u00a0explains in the French documentary Demain (Tomorrow) the implications of fossil fuel dependence and how the current energy mix which runs our planet is a direct cause for climate change. We have trimmed this eye opening 2 \u00bd minutes long scene of the documentary for you to watch. Everybody needs to understand that we are on a collective suicide trajectory if we don\u2019t make a joint effort to transform our food production system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
