Food Industry Warns Of Life-Threatening Shortages From Climate Change

[GoLeft TV]

Leaders from the food industry issued a warning to Congress last week, telling them to take action on climate change or face a global food shortage. Leaders from companies such as Kellogg’s, General Mills, Nestle, Mars, and many others co-signed a letter published in The Washington Post, where they warned about the threats that climate change poses to the food industry.

1. K & R. WATCH THIS BRIEF VIDEO. Big Food warns climate change is real (and

a threat to their bottom line). General Mills came out with a very strong statement about this issue recently, as in 'iceburg dead ahead'.

2. If only they spoken up when Al Gore sounded the call for action. With a GOP

congress, not likely that this message will be welcomed.

3. Right, Al Gore tried his best & Exxon should have started since they knew in the 70s.

People and societies who don't look, listen and act perish, obviously. If Big Food doesn't have clout with the moronic obstructionists then somehow we'll have to step in for our own sake and posterity. Something has to give on this issue now somehow NC Jack. The fight for survival is innate...

Among other things, Indian women who took over the battle ground after Little Big Horn pierced the eardrums of US soldiers, so they would listen, in the next life. (Just remembered that).

7. It will be welcomed and referenced by those who profit from GMO in crops. n/t

5. the word they are avoiding is...famine.

cal. has esp. been hit hard by the drought and then fires, which will trigger flooding if it ever rains there again.

6. Yep, famine, panic and total social disrupt and chaos. The Defense Dept., the UN and other

major institutions and corps know what's in store. Time for ACTION.

4. kick, kick, kick....

Eat less meat.

8. Once again our corruption of campaign bribes is at the root of this ability to block

Climate Change legislation and the corporate media has been complicit in keeping it as a debate instead of a reality.

Time has run out, we must do something! Americans like to brag about being The Leader, except on this issue they say the other countries won't so why should we? Even China is starting to address this while the tax credit for solar panels drops from 30% to 20% next year.

Support Bernie and push for Publicly Funded Elections and we can dramatically cut Big Money's influence over our government. Only then can we enact real Climate Change regulations and pass things like High Speed Rail, better fuel efficiency standards, better emissions standards, bigger credits for more insulation in homes...

9. The problem isnt really the amount of food its that we humans are breeding like blowflies and

the planet can only support a finite number of us.
