Today in Africa and in Ethiopia in particular, food contents and health situations has become the biggest issue. Before some 15-20 years, the food I was eating was tasty and natural. But now, the taste of foods whether animal or plant made foods is not as tasty as before. To me, what risks the world in the future is not food shortage but health problem that will be brought about unnatural food content.
What is happening in Ethiopia currently is people dying immediately without seeing a doctor. People say that it is heart attack, blood pressure, etc. But what brought these diseases these days unlike before? To me, it is the food content. Before the introduction of inorganic fertilizers, we had no such problem.
Like heart attack and blood pressure, cancer has also become the biggest problem in developed countries. This again is due, I think, to the chemical nature of food contents passing through a series of industrial process.
So, what shall we peoples of the world do? I think we have to voice loud to our governments to feed us natural foods. This is a global as well as national policy issue.
