However, the facts are in front of us: the population of China has exceeded 65.438+0.25 billion, with an annual net increase of 65.438+0.2 million; The per capita arable land area is 1.2 mu, which is the world average 1/4. At present, the cultivated land area is decreasing at a rate of more than 300,000 mu per year; 40% of China's urban population depends on imported food consumption. During the period of 198 1- 1995, the cultivated land in China decreased by 8 1 10,000 mu, thus reducing grain by 50 billion Jin. And now this reduction rate is still accelerating. Various phenomena such as indiscriminate occupation of cultivated land, dredging, declining land quality and desertification are eroding cultivated land.
The reality is absolutely not optimistic!
Saving food is the duty of every citizen, not to say that you can afford it and waste it when you live a good life. Waste is a shameful act. As long as there is a sense of saving, it is actually very simple to do: eat as much as you want when eating, and don't throw away leftovers; When eating in a restaurant, you should order in moderation, don't show off, and don't mess around. Remember: saving food starts with me.
