世界饥饿:一些数字
Tomorrow, Oct. 16, is World Food Day, a day designated by the U.N. Food and
Agriculture Organization (FAO) in 1979 to bring attention to world hunger and
food (in)security.
明天，10月16日是世界粮食日(昨天了@@) ，
这天是UN粮食与农业组织(FAO)在1979年所订立，为了提醒世人，饥饿与粮食(粮荒)
Flash forward nearly 30 years, and the world is facing not just a credit
crisis (as we watched the Dow tank last week), but an ongoing food-price
crisis that is proving catastrophic, particularly in the developing world, a
crisis that is causing riots and deepening the wounds of mass starvation.
经过将近30年，这世界不仅面临了信贷危机(尤其我们看到道琼上周的表现)，
还有个不断恶化的粮食价格危机，特别在发展中国家，
这危机将会导致暴动或大规模的饥荒。
