How does Climate Change Affect Food Security?

Is climate change threatening the world's food supply? On the next Your Call, we'll continue our weeklong series on Copenhagen by talking about global food security in the face of climate change. The UN says we need to dramatically change global agricultural policies to address hunger, poverty and climate change. How do we feed the world and become environmentally sustainable?
