By the end of this century we will have less water and much hotter air on our planet. The effects of Global Warming are going to be seen not just in the environment but also in the food that you eat. With dwindling resources, the number of vegetables being grown are going to undergo a drastic reduction.

As carbon dioxide rises and water for irrigation reduces, traditional farming methods will not be successful. In fact the impact on the environment will also change the yields of vegetables and legumes in areas of Southern Europe, Africa and Asia. The food security of these regions will be threatened and the health of the population may be compromised.

It may seem like a scene right out of a science fiction novel, but if we are unable to find a solution soon, we will be struggling to get familiar vegetables on our plate. While you may not enjoy the broccoli that mother makes you eat, there is no denying the fact that it is very good for you, health wise. Maybe we need a science project to see just what crops are actually going to survive the dire environment of the future to help us plan better.
