Petition Set a target for the UK to reduce food imports to 5% of food consumed in the UK

Protect the UK from starvation.

We import half our food. Soil loss, insect population collapse, global warming, over-fishing and extreme weather are affecting global food yields.

More details

Countries ban food exports in an emergency, putting the UK in imminent danger of food shortages, which could lead to famine unless we take action.
