New food crisis website

[Julian Cribb]

Dear colleagues -

I am please to announce that ScienceAlert has just launched a special website dealing with the global food crisis.

Our aim is to foster a worldwide discourse on what humanity should do about the food situation, now and in the decades ahead, and about the science and technology needed to address it.

You can find it at: http://www.sciencealert.com.au/global-food-crisis

This site is brand new, and we have just started our search for suitable material.

With that in mind, I wish to invite you to contribute - in the form of news items about S&T, opinion articles on aspects of food and its sustainability, and feature articles dealing with the major issues of feeding humanity in the coming half century, and by commenting knowledgably on anything which appears on it. We welcome all these whether from reputable individuals or institutions.

I also wish to invite your institutions to support the site by logging forthcoming conferences and important events on our events calendar for free - and likewise any professional scientific jobs or scholarships in its jobs section. Should you wish to highlight your events or positions vacant, you can also pay a very modest amount to advertise them, which will help us keep the site running.

Any written contributions can be made to [e-mail]
Comments can be added at the end of published articles and opinion pieces.
Jobs can be posted for free at http://www.sciencealert.com.au/post-job.html
Events can be posted for free at http://www.sciencealert.com.au/post-event.html
Advertising can be booked at [e-mail]

with best wishes
