I've read an article in Independent by Ian Hamilton called "It’s not just a bad hangover – this is how alcohol affects the environment.". It was merely about impact alcohol to enviroment. It shows that a lot of water is used to produce alcohol: "(...) one 500ml bottle of beer uses 148 litres of water – and a single 125ml glass of wine, 110 litres". And it also shows that now there is a situation, where alcohol production is more important than the food production.
In my opinion it's unacceptable, that something like this has happend. Many people on the world need food to survive and by alcohol production it is taken away from them. Food production should be on the first place in every country. The alcohol production should be possible only if there is enough food. Alcohol is not need in our life and we should focus on important things. Drinking alcohol is only a pleasure.
For some reasons humans have produced alcohol for thousands of years so it must be useful for something. Bonding? Relaxation?
