Awesomeness eh? The u.n. says we'll be running out of food soon and the world will require a 70% increase in food production in 30 years. 70%? WOW! It's much more worser than I would have thought. No problem though. The evil 'pph' plans to step up abortion activities with tax dollars so we should be okay. Or, we can look at it another way. If price charles is right, we only have 18 +/- months left. If 'aoc' is right, about 11 +/- years so.......

Someone around here makes good money selling this stuff (grows naturally, not farmed):

Didn’t this awesome ‘prediction’ appear 40-50 years ago? Must be time to recycle the fear, else the grant money is now too large to resist.

Algae seaweed has been a common food in Asian countries for a long time (Nori Sushi wrappers in Japan). Algae, just another species is all. But I hope there are no tax dollars being spent here to try and make me a Vegan because they will be wasted.

Oh BS. Plenty of land to grow food and livestock. Farming can be creative and adaptable to various environments. Poor nations are often run by corrupt, inept governments causing poverty and increased ignorance. Leftist hacks who want to live on algae and insects well then have at it.
Leave the rest of us carnivores and farm raised veggie eaters alone.

Algae is bad for the environment also, in fact it is bad for it’s own local environment and living conditions.

“The real mission is to discuss algae’s potential as a solution for a much bigger problem: the food security of our planet.”

“Food insecurity” - another crisis for the easily manipulated delusionals, in a planet where obesity is rampant.

Obama's SCIENCE ADVISOR, was John Holdren. His Wikipedia page states: "In a 1969 article, Holdren and co-author Paul R. Ehrlich argued, "if the population control measures are not initiated immediately, and effectively, all the technology man can bring to bear will not fend off the misery to come."

Because you want a science advisor who is incapable of having faith in Science. And... they've been on this exact terror tactic for at least 50 years now.

In 1973, Holdren encouraged a decline in fertility to well below replacement in the United States, because "210 million now is too many and 280 million in 2040 is likely to be much too many."

Yeah, we passed 280m in 1999, in 26 years, not 67 years... less than 1/2 the time of his brilliant predictions. And, oh yeah, we are still exporting massive amounts of food, even at 330m.

Leftists revel in discussing massive population losses. Mass death gives them a warm glow. That's why all the greatest mass murders of their own populations have all been performed by Leftists.

This is new?

Spirulina’s been marketed since the early ‘70s.

In either the old or new Battlestar Galactica science fiction series, they raised algae on one of their “farm” ships to feed the “rag tag fleet.”

Klamath Falls, Oregon, has been making a cottage industry of marketing the blue-green algae harvested from (high-altitude, cold water) Klamath Lake for decades. But it hasn’t exactly made the Fortune 500.

These people crack me up.

They’ve been making these same dire predictions for decades.

Meanwhile none of them look back at how we have increased our food supply over those same decades.

We’ll continue to do so.

We will find ways to desalinate, create new ways to do things, and feed our populace as it grows ten times it’s current size.

The real crisis is the Islamic and Chines devilish plans to destroy modern civilization for ideological purposes.

That is the only threat to modern civilization.
