Factors affecting food security

Global food supply is not even. Some places produce more food than others.

Physical factors (such as climate, soil quality and gradient) and human factors (such as technology) have historically controlled the quantity and type of food produced in any location. Today, there are many other factors that explain why some countries produce more food than others:

Climate - global warming is increasing temperatures by around 0.2°C every 10 years. Rainfall is increasing in some places, but decreasing in others. Higher temperatures and unreliable rainfall make farming difficult, especially for those farming marginal lands, who already struggle to survive. Even advanced countries (ACs) can be affected by drought. Countries such as Russia and Australia are huge exporters of wheat and barley respectively. When they suffer drought there is less food available globally and global food prices increase, leaving the poor most vulnerable.
Technology - improvements in technology have increased the amount of food available. Technology can overcome temperature, water and nutrient deficiencies in the form of greenhouses, irrigation and fertilisers. This can incur an economic or environmental cost. ACs import food from across the globe, all year round.
Loss of farmland - the growth of the biofuel market is taking up valuable farmland which is then not used for food.
Pests and diseases - pesticides have increased crop yields. Farmers in ACs can afford pesticides, whereas most farmers in low income developing countries (LIDCs) cannot afford them.
Water stress - irrigation systems provide water for countries with unreliable or low rainfall. Irrigation can double crop yields, but it is expensive to put these systems in place. Water can be taken either from underground aquifers or directly from rivers. Both have environmental consequences.
Conflict - war forces farmers to flee their land or to fight in conflict. Food can be used as a weapon, with enemies cutting off food supplies in order to gain ground. Crops can also be destroyed during fighting. Food shortages have caused riots and conflict. The South Sudan region has faced conflict for years, with 4 million people facing food insecurity. In the Darfur area conflict has lasted years because of disagreement over land and grazing rights.
Poverty - when people have less money, they cannot afford food and they become unable to work. Families in developing countries spend much of their income on food.
Impact of food insecurity

Food security is when the entire population of a country has access to enough safe and nutritious food to maintain an active life. The opposite is food insecurity, which is a problem for lots of different countries. Countries that do not have enough food to feed everyone usually have other associated issues to overcome. Some impacts of food insecurity include:

Famine - the World Food Programme classifies three hunger conditions:
Undernourishment is when people do not consume enough calories. Over 800 million people in the world are undernourished.
Malnutrition is when people do not eat enough of the right kind of foods to keep them healthy.
Wasting is the most serious type of hunger. It is severe weight loss due to acute malnutrition resulting from starvation.
Soil erosion - the removal of soil occurs more rapidly in areas that are very dry. Food insecurity can lead to soil erosion as farmers try to get more out of their land.
Deforestation, overgrazing and over-cultivation expose the soil and make it vulnerable to wind and water erosion.
Rising prices - when there is less food available, the prices of food increase - since the year 2000 prices have risen. Poorer countries are more vulnerable to increasing food prices.
Debt - food prices can be set by speculators in ACs. This can cause great swings in the prices offered to farmers for their crops from year to year. Farmers may incur debts by borrowing to buy seeds and equipment and then find they cannot sell their crops at a high enough price to repay the loan.
Social unrest - everyone needs to eat and so when food supplies are low people have to fight for their survival. Riots in Algeria in 2011 were caused by high food costs. The prices of cooking oil, sugar and flour doubled within the space of a few months.

In the formula, the variable r represents the distance from the Sun. Based on this formula, what effect will a highly
eccentric orbit have on the amount of energy received by the Sun? Answer in terms of perihelion and aphelion.

Answers

Answer:

During the aphelion, the distance from the Sun (r) is larger, leading to a lower amount of energy received from the Sun (I). During the perihelion, the distance from the Sun is smaller, leading to a higher amount of energy received. The higher the eccentricity, the higher the energy difference between perihelion and aphelion.

give me a brief history of Tokyo HURRY

Answers

Answer:

Tokyo, formerly (until 1868) Edo, city and capital of Tokyo to (metropolis) and of Japan. It is located at the head of Tokyo Bay on the Pacific coast of central Honshu. It is the focus of the vast metropolitan area often called Greater Tokyo, the largest urban and industrial agglomeration in Japan..

The site of Tokyo has been inhabited since ancient times; the small fishing village of Edo existed there for centuries. Edo’s development into a city did not occur until the Tokugawa period (1603–1867), when it became the capital of the Tokugawa shogunate. During this period, however, the imperial family remained in Kyōto, the ancient imperial capital. With the Meiji Restoration of 1868, which ended the shogunate, the capital was moved to Edo. The city was renamed Tokyo, meaning “eastern capital.” Edo had been Japan’s largest city since the 17th century. Tokyo’s population exceeded one million in the late 19th century, and as Japan’s political, economic, and cultural centre it became one of the world’s most populous cities in the 20th century.

The city is built on low, alluvial plains and adjacent upland hills. The climate is mild in winter and hot and humid in the summer. Early summer and early autumn are rainy seasons; two or three typhoons usually occur during September and October.

The metropolitan area is the largest industrial, commercial, and financial centre in Japan. Many domestic and international financial institutions and other businesses are headquartered in central Tokyo. The city is an important wholesale centre, where goods from all parts of the country and the world are distributed. Tokyo is part of the Keihin Industrial Zone, centred on the western shore of the bay, which has become the country’s leading manufacturing region. Light and labour-intensive industries predominate in the city, notably printing and publishing and the manufacture of electronic equipment.

Encircled by stone-walled moats and broad gardens, the Imperial Palace, the home of the emperor of Japan, lies at the heart of the city. East of and adjacent to the Imperial Palace is the colourful Marunouchi district, the financial hub and a major centre of Japanese business activity. South of the palace is the Kasumigaseki district, containing many national government offices. West of that is Nagatacho, where the National Diet Building (parliament) is located. Tokyo has no single central business district, but the city is dotted with urban centres, usually around railroad stations, where department stores, shops, hotels, office buildings, and restaurants are clustered. In between are less intensively developed neighbourhoods with similar mixtures. The buildings in these districts range from stone and brick structures of the Meiji period (1868–1912) to postwar concrete and steel skyscrapers; there are also a dwindling number of wooden, Japanese-style buildings. The brightly lit Ginza shopping district, located in the eastern part of the central city, is world renowned. Northeast of the Imperial Palace, the Kanda district is noted for its many universities, bookstores, and publishers. Although Tokyo’s parks are not as large as those in some major American or European cities, they are numerous and often contain exquisite Japanese gardens.

The Nijū Bridge, across an inner moat of the Imperial Palace grounds, Tokyo, Japan, and (centre) the Fushimi Tower, one of the palace's few remaining structures dating to Edo times.

Leo de Wys Inc./Steve Vidler

Tokyo is Japan’s major cultural centre. Displays depicting the art and history of Japan and Asia are featured at the Tokyo National Museum in Ueno Park. Ueno Park is also the site of a science museum, a zoological garden, and two major art museums. Art and science museums are located close to the Imperial Palace, and museums of various types are located elsewhere in the city. Theatrical works, including everything from traditional Kabuki to modern drama, are performed regularly, as are symphonic works, operas, and other Western forms of dance and music. The University of Tokyo heads a long list of major universities and colleges in the metropolitan area.
