Can epigenetics help us grow food more efficiently and combat global hunger?
- externalreality 8y agoI remember participating in a food drive when I was in high-school. One of my teachers reminded me that gathering the food was only part of the problem. Transporting is an entirely different problem. I don't know if there is a food shortage on this planet. I do know there is a distribution problem which is part technological and part sociopolitical.
