The politics of food.

[berg80]

Retards such as yourself will have them living in grass huts and foraging for their food.

There's a mountain of science that says your position on climate change is wrong.

 

[berg80]

Is the sky falling again?

No. But the climate is warming due to the billions of tons of carbon being released in to the atmosphere, affecting the growth of crops.

 

[Foxfyre]

It's a bit too late now, lmao.

Yup. But what the OP and so many others simply won't recognize is that more people die of cold than heat, both man and beast have fared infinitely better during warm times on Earth than cold and also food was much more plentiful.

And because politics is already pushing this whole climate change thing, I again submit that we would all be far better off putting money and resources into helping us adapt to inevitable climate change than we are pouring trillions into Green New Deal things that restrict liberties, options, choices, opportunity, prosperity and so far have not affected the climate in any measurable way.

 

[berg80]

Which is a very bad thing and why nothing can ever get done

Things are getting done. Especially in other countries. Biden signed an aggressive bill to fight climate change. The orange menace's potential election threatens that.

They actually grow better

Move to some other country then.

That comment is definitely in the running for dumbest post of the week.

Excessive Heat Can Kill, But Extreme Cold Still Causes Many More Fatalities

As the planet heats up, the number of heat-related deaths increase and cold-related deaths decrease. The rate of decrease in deaths due to cold is faster.

Life Flourished When Earth Was Warmer, Scientist Says

The threat of a global warming doesn't scare Judith Parrish, a geologist at The University of Arizona in Tucson and an expert on ancient climates. She's seen the ghost of the distant past in fossil leaves from the mid-Cretaceous, about 100 million years ago. These long-dead leaves tell tales of...

Sure

Spend trillions and accomplish nothing when the money could have been put to good use somewhere else

It reminds me of Hamas spending money for tunnels and rockets instead of investing it in peace and prosparity

Yield per acre will drop without the oil to run tractors and ships delivering fertilizer.

We can voluntarily reduce food consumption by cutting out the sugar and junk food with empty calories. Eating nutrition instead of manufactured appetite will make us healthier. We will need improved health for the more physical work and household chores we will be doing without oil.

Your purposeful misinterpretation of the data is not surprising.

They are other fuel sources the tractors and ships can be powered by.

 

[Darkwind]

More food grows on a warmer planet and this planet has been much warmer in the past.

The Earth is getting greener.

This is pure fearmongering.

 

[Foxfyre]

Your purposeful misinterpretation of the data is not surprising.

I don't do or interpret the data. But I do read it and understand it. And you won't find ANY serious scientific data suggesting those sources I posted are wrong. All you find is climate change propaganda of what will happen if we don't reverse climate change. The problem is they aren't reversing it. All they are doing is using speculative propaganda to control the people more and more while taking away their liberties, choices, options, opportunities and, if that continues, their prosperity.

And none of all those trillions spent and all the draconian measures they have forced onto humankind have changed the climate in any measurable way.

What to Eat on a Burning Planet​

This election season, many Americans are deeply distraught about the cost of food. You hear their frustrations in polls, at rallies and in focus groups — sticker shock is one of the few issues left to unite Americans across the political spectrum. But as painful as foodflation is, it may just be an early ripple of the kind of disruption to the food system that’s coming. The scale of these changes will be breathtaking. Their global consequences will be profound. And for most of us, they will change what’s in our refrigerators and on our kitchen tables.

Already, we can see the early tremors starting to rattle the global food system. As climate change permanently alters weather patterns, farmers are struggling to produce crops in the same huge volumes they once did. In California this month’s heat wave turned lettuce yellow. In Vietnam extreme heat has damaged the coffee crop, sending prices worldwide soaring. Consumers will soon see even higher prices and less of the foods they have come to know and love. Like it or not, our produce aisles are on the brink of transformation.

Food as You Know It Is About to Change

About three-quarters of all global agricultural land is vulnerable to substantial climate disruptions, NASA’s Jonas Jägermeyr says, “so mostly everywhere you look, things will change in one way or the other.” And that probably means the food you’re eating, too.

“The good news is, we’ve seen this show before — we’ve faced crises before,” says Mr. Barrett. The examples of success he cites are probably familiar: Innovations to solve the challenges of the Dust Bowl in America and later the Green Revolution in Asia allowed hundreds of millions of people to avoid starvation and helped usher in the fastest escape from extreme poverty the world has ever experienced.

Mr. Barrett sees plenty of promise on the horizon now, too: biofortified crops; new techniques to fix nitrogen from the air, limiting the use of fossil-fuel based fertilizer; resilient varieties, like flood-resistant rice, that are already transforming the paddies of South Asia. But there’s no magic-bullet solution, he says: We need a bundle of innovations and interventions.

The reason for the vulnerability? Partly because the 10 hottest years on record have all occurred since 2014. And partly because extreme weather events like heat waves and floods have increased about 400% in the last 50 years. Not to mention that both drought and floods can degraded the quality of topsoil needed to grow crops. The insurer Lloyd's estimates there is a 50% chance of a food shock in which a multiyear period of extreme weather leads to major crop failures in the next 30 years. (Mods, some of the stats are from an article in The Week for which I have no link)

If anyone needed another reason to vote for Harris, this is it.

The Soviets and Red Chinese murdered millions with manufactured famines. You morons learn nothing from history.
