Shown is the per capita calorie availability in 2000 and forecasts for 2050, by world region. The first set of estimates do not take climate change into the account, the other two are based on estimates by two different research bodies on how climate change will affect calorie availability. In 2000, 2424 kcal per day and per capita were available in the South Asia region.
