Here is SPA's submission to the National Food Plan consultation that was run by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (see http://www.daff.gov.au/agriculture-food/food/national-food-plan).

From the submission:

"SPA submits that, in preparing a national food plan, the government must deal with the reality that no environmental problem can be solved by human population growth and indeed that any environmental problem will be exacerbated by that growth."
