Any article that says “all the models agree” has lost all credibility with me.

This is another “crisis” to be exploited.

It is true that we have been “mining” water. But food in the United States costs less than half it does in Europe. The extreme crisis will occur in the marginal populations, like in Africa and Bangladesh, that will not be able to afford increases in food prices.

America's marginal populations do their grocery shopping at KFC, which will remain largely unaffected. :)

Yes this statement also left me scratching my head.

And at this point, the world is already eating more food than it produces most years.
