All Munder Solar Minimum cycles are associated with food shortages and diseases.

This will make it worse.

I agree. The Social Credit Scores would/will make Vaccine Passports look like child’s play.

Maybe we should be growing crops for human consumption instead of for alcohol for automobiles.

“ The world is heading into a global food crisis thanks to the war in Ukraine…”

Yes, that war is responsible for China’s winter wheat problem, increases in fertilizer prices last year, and transport and storage problems due to WuFlu lockdowns, just like it’s responsible for the increase in gas prices that started just after SloJo was elected.

That war will make things worse, for sure, but this has been going on since long before Putin lined up his army on the border.

Leftists want to use the Ukraine hostilities just like they used COVID, to advance their agenda under the radar.

Now the government and media parasites want farmers to produce more food.

Where were they the last 50 years as environmental zealots harassed the agriculture sector?

Answer: Cheering & egging it on. Giving green kooks subsidies and platforms for their propaganda.

Watch, if food production falters they’ll start calling agriculture producers “greedy & lazy.” That’s their style, never taking any personal responsibility for the messes they cause.
