Title: Fat Americans Threaten World Food Supply
Post by falah on Jun 18th, 2012 at 7:14pm
British scientists say an increasingly overweight world population is threatening global food security and the environment.

They have for the first time calculated the total weight of humanity at 287 million tonnes, with the average adult weighing 62 kilograms.

The researchers say if it the US average was replicated worldwide it would be like adding an extra 1 billion people to the global population.

Its ok because at present the system starves most nations so that Americans can become fat buckets of lard.

Q: What would be better then watching all people in poverty get fed properly?
A: Watching fat people in the West not have access to all their precious food.
