disaster. In these doom and gloom scenarios, a
massive worldwide famine was just around the
corner. The number of people would keep increasing
while the amount of food available would stay the
same or even decline. The result, the experts
argued, was famine by the early 198...

The Eighties Teen Movie Vs. The Nineties Teen
Movie In John Lewis s book, The Road to Romance
