There has been a lot of ongoing comment about rising food prices on the internet. Posts that have caught my eye this week include the Scientific American article which discusses the repercussions of the hike in food prices; Sox First and the BBC reports that food imports have now exceeded $1 trillion. The Guardian also reported that 6 million Ethiopian children are at risk as a result of local crop failure and rising prices.
