For many of us, food is something we buy at a supermarket or order at a café. We usually give little thought to the complex systems required to produce and deliver it—until they stop working. It's not common to think of Australia as a place at risk of food insecurity. It has vast tracts of fertile land and the capacity to feed its population many times over. Around 70% is exported.

    Yeah, except that exactly as Jello Biafra pointed-out, last-century, wilderness doesn’t benefit from these protections, & the food-chain that we depend on, is outside our protective-interventions.

    This is us-centric: narcissist.
