Abstract

Food security is primarily associated to the socio-economic conditions of people and broadly the survival questions in long run. The improvement of the food conditions and security are seen as vital constituents to sustainable development. What sustainable development wants is to meet the needs of the present people without compromising the needs of the future generations. But problem arises when the profit motivated business industries come to destroy our foods at the costs of our lives. Genetically engineered hybrid seeds, transgenic food plants are not good for health, as Shiva points out. So her revolt against the GM foods and go for the local, climate friendly foods are the main trust area of this paper. In dealing with all these, various dimensions of food security also comes under the ambit of its discussion.
