This year, World Food Day focused on Climate Change. A changing climate means changes in our food, both in the agricultural sector and in disposal methods. Towns, cities and countries continue to wait on policy changes enacted by their government, but really, these changes must be made by the individual, by you and by me.
First things first, we need to change how we look at the
world. It was recently announced that after 20 million years, the Great
Barrier Reef, the largest reef in our oceans, has died. There has been debate
as to whether or not this is true, but we can be certain that if not dead, it
is dying, as are many reefs throughout the seas.

But why are the reefs dying? And why is this significant?
