			Industrial Agriculture produces massive amounts of mono-cultured food stocks, but there are still millions of people across the globe who go hungry everyday or die from starvation. According to the 'Food Security Information Network' in 2022 258 million people across 58 countries/ territories faced high levels of acute food insecurity which was an increase from the 193 million people in 2021.<Ref>FSIN and Global Network Against Food Crises. 2023.
			GRFC 2023. Rome.; https://www.fsinplatform.org/sites/default/files/resources/files/GRFC2023-hi-res.pdf</Ref> <br>

			Because not all countries were included in these studies the number of people who go hungry is much higher; Between 702 and 828 million people go hungry every day according to the 2022 'State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World' report published by a joint collaboration under the United Nations.<Ref>FAO, IFAD, UNICEF, WFP and WHO. 2022. The State of Food Security and Nutrition in the World 2022. Repurposing food and agricultural policies to make healthy diets more affordable. Rome, FAO.
			https://doi.org/10.4060/cc0639en</Ref> World hunger rose further in 2021 after the emergence of the [[COVID-19 Pandemic]]:

			<Blockquote>... After remaining relatively unchanged since 2015, the prevalence of undernourishment (PoU) jumped from 8.0 to 9.3 percent from 2019 to 2020 and rose at a slower pace in 2021 to 9.8 percent. <br>

			It is estimated that between 702 and 828 million people were affected by hunger in 2021. The number has grown by about 150 million since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic – 103 million more people between 2019 and 2020 and 46 million more in 2021, considering the middle of the projected range. <br>

			The further increase in global hunger in 2021 reflects exacerbated inequalities across and within countries due to an unequal pattern of economic recovery among countries and unrecovered income losses among those most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, all in a context of diminishing social protection measures that had been implemented in 2020.<Ref>FAO, IFAD, UNICEF, WFP and WHO. 2022.

Rome, FAO. https://doi.org/10.4060/cc0639en</Ref></Blockquote>

			Even more people were moderately or severely food insecure in 2021 with the number reaching 2.3 billion or nearly 30 percent of the global population, which is 350 million more people than 2019 or before the [[COVID-19 Pandemic]] began.<Ref>FAO, IFAD, UNICEF, WFP and WHO. 2022.

	A commons transition is a multi-faceted strategy to transition away from [[capitalism]] and [[industrial agriculture,]] including food, seed, and knowledge commons. Many organizations and groups of people have already begun constructing these commons to begin the transition away from the capitalist market-relations which view everything as a potential product to abstract and commodify, including food, water, seed and land.
