    Lmao, we’re just a bit more fucked than that.

    Global fresh water demand will exceed supply 40% by 2030 and 90% of the earths topsoil is at risk of depletion by 2050.

    Resource depletion is going to hit hard in the next few decades, billions of people will die.

    Watch the daily mail say this is due to net zero or some other nonsense

      Trans bathroom policies and drag queens cause widespread agricultural failure.

    only by a third by 2050? that's only 1.1% yearly inflation rate

      Yes but remember climate is the only factor in food inflation. This estimated 1.1% would be on top of other factors.
