Earth to run of of food by 2050?

Yup we are gonna all boil to death any day now..... Or wait, I mean freeze to death.... oil will run out in 1986, err wait I mean some time soon..... 6 billion people are to many we will all starve to death, err wait not till 2050.

Got anymore?
 
Thomas Malthus first published his essay on population outrunning food back in the 1780s.

He was predicting mass starvation before the turn of the 19th century.

It is no more true today than it was then.

Maybe if we quit paying farmers not to grow crops, burning food for fuel, and hoarding fallow federal lands, we could grow enough food for everyone.
 
Oh This Is Rich! Higher CO2 Levels increase the yield of wheat!

Global Warming could END STARVATION!

Climate change alarmists hate it when we refer to carbon dioxide as “plant food”, even though the description is accurate. And what a food it is! Earlier this year, the ABC’s Landline program reported on an experiment conducted by the Victorian Department of Primary Industry, which blasted a patch of wheat with higher CO2 levels:

[ABC reporter] CHRIS CLARKE: A series of pipes pour extra carbon dioxide over a trial plot of wheat. You can hear and feel the gas coming out. So how much are you putting over this area?

[Scientist] GLENN FITZGERALD: In the centre of the ring there is a little sensor, a little cup that maintains that centre concentration at 550 parts per million which is the concentration we expect in the atmosphere over the whole planet in the year 2050.

CHRIS CLARKE: The experiment’s in its third year.

GLENN FITZGERALD: CO2 is called a fertiliser, it’s a CO2 fertilisation effect which means that carbon dioxide is a food source for plants if you will, that’s the carbon that goes into the bulk of the biomass of the plant. So raising levels of CO2 actually increases that growth, increases the biomass and in agriculture, increases the yield. Given, of course, that there’s sufficient water and sufficient nitrogen and that is what we’re seeing here. We have a number of different varieties in this trial and we’re seeing overall on average 20 per cent yield increase due to elevated CO2.

CHRIS CLARKE: They’re not just measuring how much wheat is grown. An important part of this experiment is temperature and temperature relates to water use. More carbon dioxide should increase the plants’ water efficiency …

Good thing I know how to hunt, fish and plant a garden.

I better stock up on seeds.
