Islamabad, October 16, 2022 (PPI-OT):Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has called for global initiatives to ensure food security in the world as natural disasters due to climate change are threatening to exacerbate shortage of food. In his tweets on the occasion of World Food Day on Sunday, he said climate change is having a negative impact on our lives in many ways including increasing global poverty and hunger. The Prime Minister said recent floods destroyed millions of acres of standing crops in Pakistan, impelling an agricultural country like it to import food items to compensate for this loss.
