There is one absolutely massive one, and that's that for the first time the problem is truly global.
Other famines have been caused either by war or local droughts, both of which affect only a population in a limited area and crucially, can be somewhat mitigated by importing food from elsewhere. You can't import food if there are global food shortages.
