Of all the impacts on the global price of corn, a slight bump-up in crop failures due to man-made "climate change" is relatively small. What might those impacts be, Tenchu? The other factors, which I have mentioned in a previous post, count a lot more. Are you talking about this? Oppression, lack of basic infrastructure, dysfunctional governments, fundamentalism, etc. None of those things affect the global price of corn. Even if they did, you seem to be arguing that unless climate change isn't at the root of all of their problems then its impact shouldn't be investigated at all. Hence the notion that "climate change" causes global unrest is bogus. You'd have to ignore all of the other factors that keep people starving in politically unstable areas. This is actually pretty funny. You have started with your conclusion, i.e. that climate change causing global unrest is bogus, and have reasoned back from that. We will ignore the fact that no one has mentioned global unrest but you. Despite your hand waving, it is very clear that climate change can make the very real problems the third world has, worse. The notion that unless climate change is the source of all of their problems it should be ignored is, well a novel one...
