DescriptionSet in the 2020 to 2030 period, the exercise focused on problems in the food supply due to population growth and severe weather, triggering social unrest. Held November 2015
Food Chain Reaction: A Global Food Security Game was a tabletop planning exercise with 65 thought leaders and policy makers held in November 2015 in Washington D.C.[1][2][3]

Excercise

The simulation focused on the 2020 to 2030 period during a global food crisis. Teams of participants represented governments, institutions, and businesses which had to responded to a global food crisis caused by population growth, rapid urbanization, extreme weather (like floods), and political crises.[4][5][6] Trade, climate, and security were found to be big issues in global food security and the exercise ended with the implementation of a global carbon tax.[7]
