Alarming Food Insecurity: Climate change may wipe out a third of Global food production
Climate change is known to trigger a number of effects on Human settlement. One of the major concerns in not-so distant future can be threat to our food security.
A few countries like India, already hosts greater numbers of poor, those barely have access to minimum diet required for subsistence. (snip through discussions of India’s poor)
According to a new research, one-third of global food production in under critical risk by the century end, if greenhouse gas emissions continue to register unbated growth at this current rate.
This will happen as many food bowls of the world will see temperature and precipitation variations, making it difficult for vegetation to survive if temperatures rise by about 3.7C.
Researchers from Aalto University in Finland involved with the study, have concluded that about 95% of current crop production takes place in areas categorized as “safe climatic spaceâ€, or conditions where temperature, rainfall and aridity fall within certain limits.
An associate professor at the University explained: “A third of global food production will be at risk. We should be worried, as the climate safe space is quite narrow. But there are measures we can take in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
3.7C is 6.66 Fahrenheit. Despite temperatures only going up 1.5F since 1850, they expect a rise of 5.1F in the next 79 years. Which is a rather convenient time frame, eh? But, hey, we can fix this if you give up your money, freedom, and choice to Government.

You shouldn’t. That way you’re not raising neurotic, anxiety ridden and brainwashed kids.

If it’s in the opinion section, it’s not science. Convenient time frame, though.

Because species have always been in the same place, right? They never move around, right? These people are really non-science.
