News: "'If, all other things being equal, the prices of staple foods increased because of demand for biofuels, the number of food-insecure people in the world would rise by over 16 million for every percentage increase in the real prices of staple foods,' they wrote.
'That means that 1.2 billion people could be chronically hungry by 2025 -- 600 million more than previously predicted.'"
