PART B_2

In 1960, many countries suffered from a food shortage that killed at least 15 million people. Because of that, the government started a project, joined by scientists and ordinary farmers, which they called the Green Revolution.
The Green Revolution was their solution to worldwide starvation. It has three pillars; the new types of crops, chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and irrigation. A few years later, the productivity of farming worldwide improved significantly. Although it was a huge success, it still created unexpected problems. Fertilizers are causing pollution in many countries and water supplies are running out. Water shortages have become a serious problem worldwide.
Food production will not be possible unless there is a sufficient supply of water. To solve this, they started the Blue Revolution. It practices efficient irrigation, realistic pricing, and water harvesting. Water harvesting stores rain and wastewater. Because of this, water has become a renewable source. Still, people should remember that water is essential to their survival. So, it is important to be responsible for water consumption. This way, food production will be secured especially in the coming years.
