Inside Story - The politics of global food security

Researchers are warning that rising global temperatures could see a shift in the world's traditional staples and who grows them. They predict that maize, wheat and rice will decrease in many developing countries - forcing farmers to replace them with crops more resistant to heat, drought and flooding.

so everyone agrees we need war to decrease population.

Trends over a longer period of time tend to be less "quirky" than immediate, temporary predictions.

They're lying to you... in a closed agriculture setup using a greenhouse or indoor hydroponics/aeroponics they supplement the plants with additional CO2 for accelerated growth so limiting CO2 while heat goes up will decrease crops, while not having a CO2 carbon tax would actually lead to increased plant growth. A key example is the Jurassic Period when Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide were vastly increased compared to now... Giant Dinosaurs, Giant Plants.... you do the math.

We better get ride of these central banks and world banks because they are the root of all these problems. Because people can have a little farm for them and their families but they are to poor. Why are they poor because their countries are controled by central banks because they borrow money from these banks and these banks dont have money they just created it. Also the governments have to pay interest on every currency that is printed. Its crazy
