I guess we'll have to figure out a way to not waste so much of it.

Ah... so 40% is a terrifying number. That is a lot of dead people.

One of the commonalities that sticks out in the Fall of Civilizations podcast is the collapse of food production.

What a nightmare.

Human population is expected to be 10 billion at end of century. Famine at that scale always leads to more trouble than just starvation.

I hope the new solent green has more billionaire in it.

You think the rich know and that's why they're trying to come trying to control us more recently?

Dont worry guys. We will be fine. Its those people that will have to stop eating. Doesnt concern us.

The climate change diet, the most effective way to lose weight!

That would be no problem, if we would reduce the meat and dairy consumption drastically. We could live with even less productivity, if vegetable based diet would be the norm.

Americans will still be fat with those numbers.

That shouldn't be a problem in the US as people eat way WAY too much and throw away even more

Have people start taking more care with their food

Indeed, it's to be expected, that the climatic regions best-suited to such agriculture will move, generally polewards. So there may be potentially new 'breadbaskets' - but mainly in Russia and Canada, if growing season starts earlier. But 40% of whea and maize, is not 40% of food - there are other (new) crops, and we could also adapt diets, maybe we don't need so much wheat and maize (leading anyway to obesity?). In the tropics it all depends on water management, need to store more.
