There was just a side discussion going over on the hurricane thread about the Three Gorges Dam and how close it is, or may be, to rupturing and what will happen when it blows..

The consensus was to stock up on as much food as you can because when people realize what’s going to happen to the world food supply, prices are going to go through the roof.

Prepper Ping - Three Gorges Dam, China- at risk, and has already deformed

China’s massive Three Gorges Dam is at risk of blowing, putting 400 million people at risk. (Emphasis by news source)
The problem is that China once claimed the dam would withstand a 10,000 year flood, then a 1,000 year flood and now only a 100 year flood.
  Then in 2018 it was reported online that pictures show that the Three Gorges Dam has moved .

”An expert on the region’s food supply, Geoff Quartermaine Bastin, provided this analysis
regarding the impact on the world’s food supply should the massive dam break :
“The collapse of the TGD would destroy all the cropland and livestock downstream,
destroy major cities such as Wuhan and could threaten Shanghai.
It would affect the Grand Canal systems and so spill over into the Yellow River Region.
I’m not going to quantify the damage, it’s very clear that the collapse would be catastrophic.”

MY COMMENT :
China is already known to have insufficient agriculture resources to support its own population.
It is already an agriculture and livestock importer with food stuffs such as pork, beef, soybeans, wheat, grains, etc.
If the Three Gorges Dam (2.7 Kilometers long) was to collapse, there would be total devastation downstream
including China's 'Food Belt' which is comparable to the food production of our California and mid-West grain belt.

Be aware of local problems, as well as global issues!
Also,stay up to date on current atmospheric conditions in the Caribbean where a tropical storm
has already become a CAT 1 Hurricane .
Employ the OODA loop.
