Abstract
"A little conversation, a little more action please": Both people and the environment need action more than ever. Yet, what should our priorities be? Should we aim to protect the environment or feed more people? This dilemma is increasingly facing developing and emerging countries. In Asia, more than 600 million people live with on than 1 $ per day, and the situation is even worse in Africa. Besides, all the countries concerned by this issue have to face high inflation rates and great risks of social unrest. Does the protection of the environment (especially through investments in bio-fuels) justify growing prices when most people are not even able to pay for basic groceries?
