You can bet your bippy that if the grocery stores are empty the elites who want global depopulation will have their hidey-holes wellstocked.

Last winter, Britain made sure its migrants had warm hotel rooms, free of charge, while its native citizens were unable to afford heating oil.

I'm sure Britain will make sure its migrants are first in line for whatever limited food supplies are available. Native Brits can starve.

Wokism includes mass starvation, but it will have to happen before anyone believes it.

To: Tell It Right

We got 3” of rain overnight here in Central TX. Global warming is BS. Its called seasonal weather, and you netter pray it doesn’t turn into global cooling. Its a lot easier to get cool than it is to get warm…

:: The world should be preparing for the coming cold times ::

When the time is right, the government will extract more taxes so they can fix it for us.
We will BEG them to, given the proper build-up in fearporn.
Just like Glow Bull Warming

I understand. Kind of like what the Soviets did to Ukraine in 1932-33. How can our supposedly ‘educated’ population buy into all of the propaganda? Truly, I’ve never felt less in control of my life and fate than I do now. Was I too naive before? Maybe, but I think we are way past the point at which we realize that our freedom and self-determinism are under full threat - and could go either way within our lifetimes.

A scan of area farm fields, yesterday:

Several are resting. Some are alfalfa for the fertilizer effect, plus feed for livestock. Otherwise, a small portion for soybeans. No corn.

But, there are still 6-7 weeks remaining for a crop to be seeded - I am guessing soy beans and corn.

Cockroaches, indeed. The cockroaches are the political class....
Arable land was about 29.7% in 1961, and has dropped to 24.8% as of 2021.

Arable land (% of land area) - United Kingdom

"The scale of the challenge requires a step change in investment. Our intention is that farmers and land managers can earn income from public sources like our environmental land management schemes but also attract greater finance from the private sector for sequestering carbon, improving water quality, and increasing biodiversity."

The Net Zero Growth Plan and our farming offer

"Achieving net zero in the agricultural sector by as early a date as possible – ideally 2030 – is vital in order to mitigate the UK's contribution to climate change, and to provide ‘head room’ for other economic sectors to decarbonise.
"Achieving net zero will require large-scale reductions in emissions from the agricultural sector, as well as offsetting and carbon sequestration through approaches such as rewilding, agro-ecological farming practices and reforestation.
"Achieving net zero in the agricultural sector will be made much easier by a cross-governmental commitment to the use of ‘demand-side measures’.
"A comprehensive land-use strategy will be necessary to create the required shifts in practice within the short period of time available to decarbonise our economy and contribute to averting the climate emergency.
"There are a number of practical, implementable approaches to achieving net zero emissions, including: halving meat and dairy consumption by 2030, halving food waste by 2030, and reducing the UK's demand for imported and domestically grown animal feed by enabling the use of food surplus as safely-treated feed for pigs and chickens."

Achieving net zero in the agricultural sector

Major shift in UK land use needed to deliver Net Zero emissions

Individual "net zero" can be achieved when the farmers give up their lands to government.... One has found this throughout the entire last century,,,,

One observes that in all this "net zero" enthusiasm, feeding a populace at reasonable prices is absent. This is about GROWING the power of an elite political class.

Youtube blogger that reports on his family farm.

Expected earnings for 2024:
Gross income: $1.5 million(Based on today price of farm product
expected costs: $2.0 million
expected net LOSS BEFORE planing: $500,000
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=051XlNgAWfM
Expect food costs to go up a lot.

The driver of ALL these costs is the price of fuel it effects the cost of EVERYTHING else.

> We are not in a good position

Don’t know about the UK, but here in US many have porked away enough spare calories to withstand a lot of famine! Couple months of enforced ketosis, might not be fun but might still be beneficial. And if their metabolism is truly as slow as some pro-fatties claim, they’ll last that much longer. Progressively tax the “fat rich” by selectively allocating calories to those who are “fat-poor.” And unlike the government buying up then doling out “free” food spending down the large, off budget, national fat bank account wouldn’t be inflationary. Might even offer $ tax breaks for those patriotically downsizing their wardrobe.

Global warming = longer growing seasons and lower heating costs and CO2 output ( for the lefties who care about that.)

What’s not to like?
