Will Voters Choose Hunger?
4th October 2022
Human history has largely been a struggle to get enough to eat. Starvation was an ever-present threat, almost everywhere, until very recently. Only in the last century or two has even part of the world learned how to produce an abundant and reliable supply of food. It requires a scientific approach to hybridization, crop rotation, intensive fertilization, pest control, and more. As a result of these modern farming methods, for the first time ever the vast majority of the world’s population is not imminently threatened by starvation.
But that could change. The international “environmentalist” movement is determined to outlaw modern farming practices, ostensibly for the sake of our climate. Places like Sri Lanka, the Netherlands and Canada have been forced to confront the anti-agriculture movement, and it is already making itself felt in the U.S. Banning fertilizers and prohibiting animal husbandry are two of the planks in this “green” platform.
