Zusammenfassung
This essay will explore
the food schemes of two countries: Israel and Ethiopia. Potential environmental and
political threats exist which may affect either of the two nations food production (or the
production of the countries which supply their food). These threats will be applied and
extrapolated on various scales in terms of food production losses, price adjustments,
and food insecurity. Finally, potential repercussions will be considered. In order to do
this, food data from multiple institutions and governments will be used in conjunction
with scientific literature focused on climate change, environmental degradation, and
resource scarcities that might affect food production. These two literatures will be fused
to produce a qualitative examination of vulnerabilities for both Ethiopia and Israel’s food
supply, access, and distribution.
