Its entirely possible that no one will be able to provide food in substantive quantities. Chaotic climate may preclude it, and lack of fossil fuels and their infrastructure may preclude it

Meaningless nonsense is meaningless.

and lack of fossil fuels and their infrastructure may preclude it

In a transitory period, sure, but not in the long term.

Ok, we'll just tell the wheat that 6 months of blistering heat and no water, followed by immediate torrential rain and flooding is just meaningless nonsense, and not to worry about it

Okay but what about the massive lightning storms followed by super volcanoes????

See, its easy to just make shit up when you aren't citing anything and just insisting X thing will happen.

I didn't insist anything. I said it's entirely possible. And I didn't cite anything because the the impacts of climate change on agriculture are regularly talked about here. I'm not sure if you're a climate change denier, or if you're one of those "longer growing season" people. But i really dont care to convince you that climate change is real and is likely to fuck the worlds agriculture. So, dont worry friend, everything will be fine, and humans will colonize Mars soon

Which is a cop out. Source your shut.

Doesn't matter. Cite it.

Neither. Source your shit.

Nah. I was just trying to have a friendly conversation, which is why i brought up a possibility. But you're kind of an asshole, so I dont exactly feel motivated to put together a masters thesis for you. Have a nice day

Again, cop out. Misinformation doesn't get a free pass, so cite your shit.

Here is a starter. The World's Food Supply is Made Insecure by Climate Change. Maybe I'll come back after work with some specifics on why I think the agriculture situation might be more dire than that UN article states

That link does not confirm your bias. Google harder.
