@ Climate 'see-no-evil's', it's happening. Cyclical, man-made, man-influenced, it doesn't make a damn bit of difference now.
Population? We're way past our carrying point.
Resources? Drill, baby, drill. Will it alleviate things? Not so much. But go ahead.
World economy? Do more with less, my peeps. Unless you're rich. Then you can feel free to do less with more.

Get ready for the food riots of the mid-21st.

UNLESS peeps like AU wake up (good luck with that).
UNLESS peeps in control realize that being fantastically RICH in a totally unstable world society just ain't worth bein' the one with the most toys (that they'd likely get killed in out there anyways).

Y'all notice the food prices increasin'?
Police shoot an IRAQ VET in the head with a 'projectile' for protesting peaceably?
Peeps in Pacific island nations considering seeking RELOCATION due to erosion & flooding never seen before in their collective memory?
And with all this, record profits to the '1%'?

Ya see Chrissy, folks like me woke up like 20 years ago, when the fears of the hysterical were soundly mocked and ignored, into the background noise of nonsensical chatter, where it belongs.

Food riots ? Then put an end to the lunacy of ' corn for fuel' for cars. STOOPID ! How about some nice sugar cane, instead ? Yeah, that works better.

There's always gonna be " the 1% ". No matter what system you're in. Get over it. At least here, you're free to achieve what ever you want, and not be bound to a socio-economic class, the same as your parents, and their parents, and their parents....

Yeah, freedom pretty much kicks ass.

We STOP greenhouse gasses RIGHT NOW & guess what? The ball is rolling Byte. It may slow a bit, but it'll still hit the pins.
And by estimates on long-term planetary Human feeding capacity by peeps much smarter than you or I, 3 billion is the ideal max #.

With the CURRENT world agricultural droughts/freezes, industrial food production is just beginning to show the lag.

"We were so many..."

AU, as nice a guy as I'm really sure you are IRL, on this issue(s) on this site you're just a fucking idiot. 'Comfortably numb' I believe is the scientific term.

Luckily for you, you're really old, and won't have to do the serious fighting.

Hey Chrissy, would you prefer we lived on a ice ball ?




Try growing a world supply of crops under a mile or 2 of solid ice!


C'mon... snap out of it !

We're gonna TRY growing it in dust bowls & swamps.
UNLESS we accept what the situation is and plan ahead.
Which current trends make seem... unlikely.
When you plant your little ostrich head so FIRMLY up the but of any one political party, how can it be otherwise?

Oh, and Hero, I note for the record that Obama is a FAIL.
