This can easily turn into a nightmare beyond comprehension. Or not. TJ loves to foment hysteria. There is enough food for even the seven billionth person, born on this planet perhaps today or tomorrow. Happy birthday, number seven billion. People go hungry, because of poverty, and because of politics, but not because there is not enough food. There may be a decrease in agricultural production, not due to heat but to cold. We are in the middle of an anomalous solar minimum, a hithertofore unwitnessed decrease in sunspots. Sunspots cause upper air circulation in the northern hemisphere. No circulation, very hot summers, very cold winters.

It is in hysteria that the money is: ask Archer Daniels Midland, Bunge, Cargill, Louis Dreyfuss and Glencore. It is not TJ as Ilaine put in her last posting that creates hysteria. Commodity traders: The trillion dollar club. small club of companies who trade the food, fuels and metals that keep the world running Message 27719413 The ups and downs of agriculture is nothing that started now. seven years of fat cows followed by 7 years of slim cows comes to mind. This assertion that "accelerating climate change on agriculture" is the scientists looking for some money for their research. Don't worry. It is all about money and pulling the wool over the eyes of the ignorant crowds. I lived and worked in Thailand for about one and a half years and I can tell you floods are normal there. If you live at the discharge area of Himalaias, you would get floods some years worse than others but floods there is a fact of life. So forget about carbon levels ice melting and other non-sense. Money for traders Archer Daniels Midland, Bunge, Cargill, Louis Dreyfuss and Glencore is what is at stake.
