0:02:44.197,0:02:45.198 Take a minute to just 0:02:45.198,0:02:49.169 think about that and think about you[br]yourself as a consumer. 0:02:49.202,0:02:52.472 How do you influence what producers grow? 0:02:54.774,0:02:56.876 If you think back to lesson 0:02:56.876,0:03:01.080 four on economies, we talked[br]about the law of supply and demand, 0:03:01.080,0:03:04.450 and we discussed how[br]when there is a high demand, 0:03:05.051,0:03:08.454 that the price prices go up and more[br]things are produced. 0:03:08.454,0:03:12.759 When there's low demand, prices go down[br]and less of 0:03:12.759,0:03:14.460 that will eventually be produced. 0:03:14.460,0:03:18.531 So you as a consumer[br]have the ability to influence 0:03:19.065,0:03:21.868 what producers or farmers? 0:03:21.868,0:03:22.669 Same thing. 0:03:22.669,0:03:25.638 What producers grow and how they grow it. 0:03:25.638,0:03:29.175 So your choices will impact[br]overall sustainability 0:03:29.175,0:03:32.178 throughout your life. 0:03:32.845,0:03:34.147 In summary, I want to talk about 0:03:34.147,0:03:37.650 three ways we can expand[br]our capacity to produce food. 0:03:39.252,0:03:40.186 The first is 0:03:40.186,0:03:43.156 by developing and implementing[br]new technologies. 0:03:43.156,0:03:47.560 We talked about best management practices[br]throughout the journey 2050 program. 0:03:48.094,0:03:51.564 Those best management practices[br]are going to change throughout your life 0:03:51.564,0:03:56.436 as new things are discovered, as research[br]is done, and we're going to continue 0:03:56.436,0:04:01.274 finding better ways and better[br]technologies to use our resources wisely. 0:04:03.009,0:04:05.645 The second is to help developing countries 0:04:05.645,0:04:08.648 improve their farming efficiency. 0:04:10.750,0:04:14.153 The third and the last is learning[br]how consumer choices 0:04:14.153,0:04:17.790 can either support or challenge food[br]sustainability. 0:04:20.727,0:04:21.928 To finish up this lesson, 0:04:21.928,0:04:25.465 go ahead and review the key points[br]that are found at the end of your handout. 0:04:27.100,0:04:28.034 Congratulations! 0:04:28.034,0:04:31.771 This marks the end of the entire journey[br]2050 program. 0:04:32.205,0:04:35.642 You should at this point[br]be able to answer the question 0:04:35.642,0:04:40.913 how can we sustainably feed[br]nearly 10 billion people by the year 2050?
