According to Reuters Alert Net World leaders will be convening in Rome this week to address issues related to a global food crisis that is forcing 100 million people into hunger, provoking food protests and sparking violence in war zones.

Reuters went on to announce that as the U.N. summit draws up an emergency plan to cut trade barriers, mobilize aid and invest in farming, they would like to hear how rising food prices are affecting the public. Targeted questions include: Has food price inflation changed the way you live daily life? Has it had a noticeable impact on your community? How does the future look if prices keep rising?
