” To determine the impact of global warming on agriculture in these regions, the authors analyzed 20 climate change models...”

Garbage in, garbage out.

“Impoverished areas of Africa and Asia face severe crop losses from climate change in 20 years”
_____________________________________________________

However, impoverished areas in the north of Asia and south of Africa will experience longer growing seasons -due to global warming- and thus benefiting. But since this won’t scare you into supporting the eviro-scam that is “The Global Warming Movement”, we’re just gonna print the potential negatives.

Thanks

I have begun to wring my hands and weep, as demanded by the Council of Correctness.

I do want it to be known that because of the additional actions I am now required to take, that I will have less time to devote to asteroids that may hit the earth, or super volcano's that may wipe us out.

I ask forgiveness.

Wow, I guess all my old memories of starving people in Ethiopia and Indo-China who live where there isn't enough food production to support the population growth are fantasies then.

Personally I think Sam Kinison had the right idea - Don't send them food, send them Uhauls. That way they can move to WHERE THE FOOD IS!!

Curiously (or not), the biggest threat to third-world food supplies comes not from “glo-bull warming”, but from the left’s hysterical responses to the imagined threat. The surge to use my tax dollars to subsidize biofuels means that a very large percentage of farmland is being converted from growing food to growing ethanol. More unfarmed land is also being converted, with all the attendant environmental repercussions that that brings. The other thing these unhinged loony lefties haven’t considered is this “organic foods” foolishness. While they’re busy making themselves feel good about imaginary heath benefits, it takes more land to raise the same amount of food, since the yeilds are lower when you don’t use fertilizers or pesticides. That’s part of the (much) higher cost of the product. (The rest is an outrageous ripoff.) Result? More agricultural land eaten up by narcissistic Feelgod Foolishness. That equals more starvation for the most stressed people on the planet, i.e., poor people in third-world countries.
But it will be the Consevatives’ fault, just wait and see.

“Impoverished areas of Africa and Asia face severe crop losses from climate change in 20 years”

Correct headline:

Impoverished areas of Africa and Asia face severe crop losses from Marxist dictators and useful idiots at universities

This is funny. The same people who can’t figure out what the “climate” will be doing next week are now adding crop forecasting to their list of specialties ?

Bwahahahahahahahahah !

Someone tell me this is from scrappleface, please.

Thanks TLR. In response I was seeking an old article about how stopping grazing and letting the monsoon rains do their job leads to better conditions even in drier conditions. Couldn't find it, oh well.
Evolution in Your Face

Omni
Lake Victoria, Africa's largest lake, is home to more than 300 species of cichlids. These fish, which are popular in aquariums, are deep-bodied and have one nostril, rather than the usual two, on each side of the head. Seismic profiles and cores of the lake taken by a team headed by Thomas C. Johnson of the University of Minnesota, reveal that the lake dried up completely about 12,400 years ago. This means that the rate of speciation of cichlid fishes has been extremely rapid: something on average of one new species every 40 years!

I’m guessing that the new ice age will freeze their land and it is hard to plow with a sharp stick?

"in 20 years"

In other words, long after this bogus prediction has been forgotten.

The systematic slaughter of the white farmers throughout sub-Saharan Africa had nothing to do with the crop shortages, obviously.
