Passage 1
Topic
Food security Food future
A crisis is looming: To feed our growing population, we' II need to double food production.
Yet crop yields aren ’t increasing fast enough, and climate change and new diseases threaten the limited varleties we’ve come to depend on for food. Luckily we still have the
seeds and breeds to ensure our future food supply- but we must take steps to save them.
Six miles outside the town of Decorah, lowa, an 890-acre stretch of rlling fields and woods called Heritage Farm is letting its crops go to seed. It seems counterintuitive, but
then everything about this farm stands in stark contrast to the surrounding acres of neatly rowed corn and soybean fields that typify modern agriculture. Heitage Farm is devoted to
collecting rather than growing seeds. It is home to the Seed Savers Exchange, one of the largest non-govemment-owned seed banks in the United States.
In 1975 Diane Ott Whealy was bequeathed the seedlings of two heirloom plant varieties that her great grandfather had brought to America from Bavaria in 1870: Grandpa Ott' s moming glory and his German Pink tomato. Wanting to preserve such unique varieties, Dlane and her husband, Kent, decided to establish a place where people could store and trade the seeds of their own past. The exchange now has more than 13,000 members and keeps in its walk-in coolers, freezers, and root cellars the seeds of many thousands of heirloom varieties. The farm grows a glorious profusion of select vegetables, herbs, and flowers around an old red bar that is covered in Grandpa Ott' s stunningly deep purple moming glory blossoms.
“Each year our members list their seeds in this," Diane Ott Whealy says, handing over a copy of the Seed Savers Exchange 2010 Yearbook(Q6)。 It is as thick as a big-city elephone directory, with page after page of exotic beans, garlic, potatoes, peppers,apples, pears, and plums- each with its own name, personal history, and distinct essence.
There’s an apple known as Beautiful Arcade, a“ yellow fruit splashed with red" ; one named Prairie Spy, described as“ precocious”; another dubbed Sops of Wine that dates back to the Middle Ages. There' s an Estonian Yellow Cherry tomato obtained from“ an elderly Russian lady”in allin, a bean found by archaeologists searching for pygmy elephant fossils in New Mexico, a Persian Star garic from“ a bazaar in Samarkand."
Heirloom vegetables have become fashionable in the United States and Europe over the past decade, prized by a food movement that emphasizes eating locally and preserving the flavor and uniqueness of heirloom varieties. Found mostly in farmers markets and boutique groceries, heirloom varieties have been squeezed out of supermarkets in favor of modem single-variety fruits and vegetables bred to ship well and have a uniform appearance, not to enhance flavor. But the movement to preserve heirloom varieties goes way, beyond America’s renewed romance with tasty, locally grown food and countless vareties of tomatoes. It' s also a campaign to protect the world' s future food supply.
Most of us in the well-fed world give ltte thought to where our food comes from or how it's grown. We steer our shopping carts down supermarket aisles without realizing that the apparent bounty is a shiny stage set held up by increasingly shaky scaffolding. We' ve been hearing for some time about the loss of flora and fauna in our rainforests. Very ltle.
by contrast, is being said or done about the parallel erosion in the genetic diversity of the foods we eat.
Food varietles extinction is happening all over the world- and it' s happening fast. In the United States an estimated 90 percent of our histoic fruit and vegetable varieties have vanished. Of the 7 ,000 apple varieties that were grown in the 1800s, fewer than a hundred remain. In the Philippines thousands of varieties of rice once thrived; now only up to a hundred are grown there. In China 90 percent of the wheat varieties cultivated just a century ago have disappeared. Experts estimate that we have lost more than half of the world’s food varieties over the past century. As for the 8,000 known livestock breeds, 1,600 are endangered or already extinct.
Why is this a problem? Because if disease or future climate change decimates one of the handful of plants and animals, we’ve come to depend on to feed our growing planet, we might desperately need one of those varieties we’ve let go extinct. The precipitous loss of the world’s wheat diversity is a particular cause for concern. One of wheat' s oldest adversaries, Puccinia graminis, a fungus known as stem rust, is spreading across the globe. The pestilence’s curent incaration is a virulent and fast-mutating strain dubbed Ug99 because it was frt ientified in Uganda in 1999. It then spread to Kenya, Ethiopia,Sudan, and Yemen. By 2007 it had jumped the Persian Gulf into lran. Scientists predict that Ug99 will soon make its way into the breadbaskets of India and Pakistan, then ifiltrate Russia, China, and- with a mere hitch of a spore on an airplane passenger’s shoe- our hemisphere as well.
Roughly 90 percent of the world’s wheat is defenseless against Ug99. Were the fungus to come to the US. an estimated one bllion dollars’worth of wheat would be at risk.
Scientists project that in Asia and Arica alone the portion of wheat in imminent danger would leave one blion people without their primary food source. A significant famine crisis
is inevitable, according to Rick Ward of the Durable Rust Resistance in Wheat project at Comell University.
The world' s population is expected to reach seven bllion people this year. By 2045 it could grow to nine bllion. Some experts say we" II need to double our food production to keep up
with demand as emerging economies consume more meat and dairy. Given the added challenges posed by climate change and constantly mutating diseases like Ug99, it is becoming ever more urgent to find ways to increase food yield without exacerbating the genetic anemia coursing through indutialized agriculture ' s ostensible abundance. The world has become increasingly dependent upon technology-driven, nesse-its-al solutions to its problems. Yet the best hope for securing food' s future may depend on our ability to preserve the locally cultivated foods of the past.

Decisions, decisions!
A widely recognsed legend tells us that in Gordium (in what is now Turkey) in the fourth century BC an oxcart was roped to a pole with a complex knot. It was said that the first person to untie it would become the king of Asia. Unfortunately, the knot proved impossible 0 untie. The story continues that when confronted with this problem, rather than deliberating on how to untie the Gordian knot. Alexander, the famous ruler of the Greeks in the ancient world, simply took out his sword and cut it in two - then went on to conquer Asia. Ever since, the notion of a'Gordian solution' has refered to the atractiveness of a simple answer to an otherwise intractable problem.
Among researchers in the psychology of decision making, howvever, such solutions have traditionally held ltte appeal. in particular, the 'confict model" of decision making proposed
by psychologists Irving Jams and Leon Mann in their 1977 book, Decision Making, argued that a complex decision making process is essential for guarding individuals and groups
from the peril of 'group-think'. Decisions made without thorough canvassing, surveying., weighing,examining and reexamining relevant information and options would be suboptimal and often disastrous. One foreign affairs decision made by a well-known US political leader in the 1960s is typically held us as an example of the perils of inadequate thought, whereas his succssful handling of a later crisis is cited as an example of the advantages of careful deliberation. However, examination of these historical events by Peter Suedfield, a psychologist at the University of British Columbia, and Roderick Kramer, a psychologist at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, found lttle difference in the two decision-making processes; both crises required and received complex consideration by the poltical administration, but later only the second one was deemed to be the effective.
In general, however, organizational and political science offer Ittle evidence that complex decisions fare better than simpler ones. In fact, a growing body of work suggests that in
many situations simple 'snap' decisions will be routinely superior to more complex ones .
an idea that gained widespread public appeal with Malcolm Gladwell's best- slling book Blink (2005).
An article by Ap Dijksterhuis of the University of Amsterdam and his colleagues, Making the Right Choice: the Deliberation-without-attention Effect', runs very much in the spinit of
Gladwel's infuential text. It's core argument is that to be effective, conscious (deliberative) decision making requires cognitive resources. Because increasingly complex decisions
place increasing strain on those resources, the quality of our decisions declines as their complexity increases. In short, complex decisions overrun our cognitive powers. On the
other hand, unconscious decision making (what the author more complex decisions
