“changing weather patterns like hurricanes and drought could drive up grain prices”

Oh well that makes sense, since we’ve been getting so many more tornadoes and hurricanes.

Except were aren’t.

So the plan is to wreck the economy with carbon credits to save the price of cornflakes?

Well the first part they will definitely do... wreck the economy with carbon credits.

But corn flakes will rise in price even with all their “best” efforts.

Don’t need no stinking manufactured cereal. Leave such junk food for those who worry about overpopulation and sponsor television doomsday garbage with their unrealistic advice. The only overpopulation problem is that of their own demographic.

“The Oxfam study draws from the recent slew of reports released by the Obama administration and the United Nations to argue that climate change will hike prices on raw agricultural goods.”

Aren’t these the same pro-Palestinian thought police who rained on Scarlet Johansson’s parade when she signed a contract to endorse the Israeli-made SodaStream product?

Could another reason be that 40% of the nations corn crop is being used in the ethanol boondoggle?

Eating GMO corn flakes loaded with glyphosate isn’t good for anyone, anyway.

Bacon and eggs!
