CJ,
The Arab Spring started out of protests over food shortages caused by some crop failures.
Crop failures never happened before the climate started changing?

Nonsense.

In fact, Wilxox & Makowski have determined that for wheat, reduced crop yields are more than offset by increased CO2 concentrations. Hence, reduced crop yields are likely a result of something else (in this case, a shortage of water, which in that region has nothing whatsoever to do with climate change.)
