over the last 30 years- farmers have committed suicides in direct relation to increasing abortions world-wide- as abortions increased- so did suicides by farmers-

either that or it was the invention of bubblicious bubble gum- ever since the invention of this fantastic bubble gum farmers suicides have increased exponentially-

however, the increase could also correspond with increased consumption of TAB diet soda- it can’t be just coincidence that TAB consumption and suicide deaths increased at the same time

Or- it ‘could be’

I roamed around India for several weeks in the past couple years. I saw many reasons for anyone living there to kill themselves...weather fluctuations weren’t among them. Sheesh...this “researcher” is brain-addled.

Correlation = Causation

Those weren't suicides! As we all know, there are fewer pirates on the oceans. That means the pirates are now on land. The pirates are killing Indian farmers!

exactly- the poverty is overwhelming there- pollution is horrible- trash everywhere- country is massively overcrowded- and the poor are exploited terribly- in many cases- That researcher is a liar- there are many many reasons over there why folks would off themselves- extreme poverty being a big one

Probably stress from trying to grow crops in a desert.

Sam Kinison was crude but his solution for global hunger had some truth in it. Send them some boxes and a uhaul truck. It’s a desert!! Nothing grows there!! Nothings going to grow there!!!

Bah. It’s probably over the monetary change that India has been slashburning its lower tier demographics.

The change from a cash-based system to a demonitized one is a more reasonable explanation than admitting to the cashless cabal that people are being hurt and badly by this wholesale plunge into new system.

You guys raised some very interesting points. Let me add my own observation....

Well, let's see, what we didn't have in the last 5 decades? The ubiquitous cell phones/tablets, flat screen/HD tvs, hover boards, drones, ..... it could anything. But there are no studies of those to the farmer's suicides in India. Hmmmmm.

OK, let's be serious. STOP FUNDING bogus research, already !!!!!

How about a short list of things that AREN’T caused by climate change? I’ve already seen the long list of things that ARE caused by it.

Interesting study.

Since 10% of suicides are by farmers, and 50% of India’s population are farmers, it is proof positive THAT GLOBULL WARMING IS POSITIVE for India’s farmers since they have a much lower suicide rate than the rest of the population.

My observation as well. Of course, the dimwit libs who worship at the altar of AGW will just uncritically drink this down, and share it time and time again on their Facebook echo chambers.
