Hello,
My name is Christophe Pelletier.
I am the owner of The Happy Future Group Consulting Ltd, a consulting firm based in Vancouver. The food and agriculture division of this company is called The Food Futurist.
The firm's mission is "To help the clients challenge today’s certainties, shape the future, and manage the transition with a targeted and practical action plan for the coming 10 years and beyond".
The Food Futurist offers seminars and strategic consulting in the areas of market-driven food value chains, policy making and business organization.
I have a broad extensive international business experience, and a MSc. from the Institut National Agronomique Paris-Grignon. I have been active in beef, dairy, animal feed and nutrition, pork, poultry and aquaculture. I have filled positions in scientific and technical support, planning, logistics, quality control, sales & marketing, plant management and senior executive level. I have lived in three countries, conducted business on four continents, and speak five languages.
I am the author of two books:
- "Future Harvests – The Next Agricultural Revolution", published in August 2010, about the future of food and farming, exploring the possibilities to meet the demand of an increasing world population at the horizon 2050.
- We Will Reap What We Sow - Reflections on Human Nature, Leadership and Feeding a Growing Population, published in May 2012, explains how leadership can affect consumer behavior and influence production and supply systems for better or worse. The book raises the important questions that future leaders face to succeed in overcoming the challenges ahead.

The danger of a weakening US dollar
The global economic situation is still fragile, and one of the symptoms is the nervousness about currencies. All it takes is a rumor to see a particular currency drop within minutes. The actions taken by central banks during the financial crisis have consequences. The amount of debt and the ability, or inability, of individual countries to manage the situation will influence the relative strengths of all currencies.
One currency has a special status. Because of the economic and…
