## Resource

The UK government is pushing to expand poultry farming to boost food security, but critics are sounding the alarm—calling it resource-intensive, polluting, and inefficient. They urge a shift toward homegrown plant proteins like beans and lentils, warning that reliance on imported soy poses national security risks tied to deforestation and supply chain fragility. As climate and ecosystem collapse loom, top security officials warn of looming food shortages and economic chaos. While farm-based infrastructure upgrades are welcomed, campaigners insist they must not sacrifice water, biodiversity, or animal welfare—because the future of food security hinges on a healthy environment.
