Re: Food shortages are unavoidable now.
Shortages for not only food but for resources in general are inevitable given a combination of the ff.
- limits to growth driven by physical limitations of the biosphere;
- the effects of long-term environmental damage on resource availability;
- increasing debt as part of global, competitive capitalism, leading to frequent economic crashes;
- multi-fold increase in arms development and deployment, leading to permanent conflict, especially over resources;
- increased vectors for the spread of disease, disrupting supply chains and the point that there are only a few days' worth of processed food, medicine, fuel, etc., in every town and city worldwide;
and so on.
