    Thank you for making this public!
  • the time frame is way off. If the Global food grid doesn't collaps this summer. We will have survived another year. However, the food basket of the world is shrinking every year. Whatever it is people want to believe, things are about to get interesting and difficult. Climate Change Denial is going to be a touch sell this year.
  • No more prime land ...yes, under old buildings. ... not much, but then the population will become 'not much'.

    I agree with the sentiment, but I feel like the projecting forward just based on the 2003 data point is the kind of thing that discredits environmental science.
