Today's incredible statistic

comes from the Institution of Mechanical Engineers:
half of the food grown in and imported to Europe and North America
is thrown away. 
30% of food grown there is rejected because of its appearance. 
Elsewhere, half is lost by inept storage, poor infrastructure, hygiene etc.

Agriculture (by the Most Intelligent Species)
on a grotesquely-overpopulated planet
is simply succession of catastrophes.
