[Food Chain Reaction: What Our Food Supply Will Look Like in 2020] from 2015' (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f03OtxEKXXY) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f03OtxEKXXY

*The global food system is under increasing stress. To address population growth in Africa and Asia and changing consumption patterns, agricultural production will need to substantially increase by 2050. This increase must occur despite a shrinking rural labor force, limited availability of new farmland, growing water stress, and increasing risks from climate change. Numerous demographic, political and social, economic and trade, energy, environmental, and national security and diplomacy factors present significant challenges and opportunities to ensuring global food security for the next 10 years and beyond.

On November 9-10, 2015, more than forty players representing key national, international, and private sector decision makers met in Washington, D.C. for the Food Chain Reaction simulation. The two-day event aimed to examine how to prepare for and mitigate against long-term and deepening disruption of the global food system.

Before game play began, players watched this dramatization of a fictional news cast from the year 2020 about the state of the world's food system.*

As it was projected, the decade brought two major food crises, with prices approaching 400 percent of the long term average; a raft of climate-related extreme weather events; governments toppling in Pakistan and Ukraine; and famine and refugee crises in Bangladesh, Myanmar, Chad and Sudan. ** inpage-food-chain-reaction Climate, hunger, civil unrest and spiking food prices came together at the Food Chain Reaction game in Washington DC this week.
