If every country on Earth confiscated every penny beyond bare subsistence from every person alive and spent it all on “climate”, they could not affect the global temperature by one degree or the sea levels by an inch.

If every human disappeared tomorrow, the Earth would continue in its slightly irregular orbit of the Sun, with its little wobble, as it has since God set it spinning. Winter, spring, summer and fall would progress as always. Natural cycles would continue; global temperatures would change periodically, glaciers would advance and retreat, ocean levels would rise and fall, deserts would become savannas and savannas would become forests or wetlands. Some forests and wetlands would revert to desert. Over eons of time tectonic forces would push up mountains and volcanoes would erupt, and over more eons they would be worn down by wind and rain.

This would continue until the day of the Lord’s choosing, when our Sun goes nova and reduces the planet to ash.

The main difference is that there would be no liberals around to lie about it.

If 1/3 of the US wheat harvest has been deemed not harvest able quality as some have suggested,
and is left in the field, hunger will be upon us sooner than we thought.
Weather is a fickle issue with drought, then flooding, then drought again in the US grain belt
Prepare accordingly !

“What is a reasonable rational person to conclude?”

That John Kerry and his ilk need hemp neckties.

I’ve been prepping since 9-11, and am well-prepared on almost every front. Medical is dicey, since CCP-China makes 96% of our meds.

If the wheat in my neighborhood is any indication of a broader trend, I'd say that claim may not be far off the mark.

150 acre wheat patch across the road from my house... so far this spring farmer guy has applied nitrogen fertilizer once, sprayed once for bluegrass and wild onions, and sprayed fungicide just last week. It's a beautiful piece of wheat right now, but I can't imagine how ol boy is going to make any money on it.

80 acre wheat patch up on the corner has already been sprayed with glyphosate and planted to soybeans.

My friend says we're like the dinosaurs
And here we are
Doing ourselves in much faster than they
Ever did

PING!

"In the near future, there won’t be enough, and what there is will be too expensive for many. We’re going to find out what real hunger is."

There are those who were made for such times.

Different plants reflect different and identifiable wave lengths of light.

Your clandestine bean, squash and corn plants will be detected and reported to authorities from satellites in space.

Quit thinking that you'll be able to 'sneak-around' and grow your own food.
