Reasons for Contain Gardening & Urban Gardening
Although the Earth is arguably over populated, there is still plenty of space for food cultivation. The problem is, however, that there are many hurdles to the cultivation of food, not all of them dependent upon the growing difficulties of the climate, the soil, or the conditions under which food supplies are grown. Many of the difficulties in growing food revolves around issues related to poverty, distribution, and options available for communities to grow and to use their own harvest yields. The key to guaranteeing that any person worldwide is able to have enough food not to starve, is by giving them the tools to solve their own roadblocks to hunger.

[No reviews. The author managed to screw up the title when he listed it. The cover says "container", the title reads "contain". Not a good omen.]
