Comments by "channel" (@channel1_channel) on "Famine in 2022" video.

The shift of wealth from the lower and middle classes to the already rich has been extremely depressing. The money flowed to the wrong end of town. Chaos is coming.

6:00 "there is global climate change" - There always has been global climate change. Change is the constant. Deaths due to climate were happening a much higher rate 100 years ago. If the climate cools over the next decades, we are in for much more problems with food supply. Lately, the cold is causing decreased corn crops in Brazil and Argentina. Not good.

I just watched this video on this subject of famine coming this year: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-y4PqAMe_Qc&t=514s (it is about 23 min long)

@saultysault "links on those statistics?" - I gather you are referring to the death stats. The source graphs come form OFDA/CRED International Disaster Database. There was a WSJ article titled: We're Safer From Climate Disasters Than Ever Before .....within this article you will find the graph. The WSJ article was authored by Bjorn Lomborg Nov. 3, 2021. Sorry, I'm not chasing graphs or links for you. Plus YT might ban my comment if I provide a link.

"for climate change reasons and obviously crops were decreased" - Generally, crops are up compared with many past decades. Thank goodness we are not seeing the heat waves of the 1930s, or the cold of the Little Ice Age period.

@JesterEric A drop in temperatures will also bring back more severe weather as colder air at the poles mixes with equatorial air. I certainly hope we don't see much of a decrease in global temperatures under solar cycle 25 & 26. Plants generally don't like cold.

The climate has always changed. Humans can't tame the climate and stop it changing.

Thank goodness we are in a period of relative climate warmth. If cooling happens in the coming decades, food supplies will drop off.

@WilliamAshleyOnline Corn crops in Brazil and Argentine are suffering due to cold temperatures. I won't be suprised if global temperatures trend downwards moving forward. When it comes to hot temperatures, I am glad we don't have the heat waves that occurred in the 1930s.

@WilliamAshleyOnline More extreme heat and cold than when? 100 years ago there was much more death due to weather. I am constantly thankful that we live in relatively calm and warm times now. A look at history has brought me to be so grateful. If you think you can regulate the climate via CO2 you are delusional. The climate always changes.

@WilliamAshleyOnline "We are facing catastrophic climate change" - I completely disagree. I am fine with more atmospheric CO2. It is a blessing for plant life.

@WilliamAshleyOnline The notion of stopping the climate changing is truly bananas. There is actually a lot of greening about the planet, and more CO2 helps plants resist droughts. We have records of whole rivers in Europe drying up in past centuries. California has seen droughts lasting hundreds of years in the past. We are so lucky today! No dustbowls like the 1930s. Yes, farming practices need to be revised in order to protect soil quality. Yes, too much of anything...blah blah..how extreme do you want to go. The ice at the antarctic has ticked up on average over the last few decades. Ocean cycles play huge roles. Hopefully, we don't see much cooling moving forward.

@WilliamAshleyOnline The ocean is alkaline and no where near "acidification". This sort of talk is pure unscientific propaganda talk. Like beer, the ocean holds more CO2 at cooler temperatures. In the early 1990s we were told the global warming run away tipping point would be around the year 2000. Now "the science" has fools believing it is 2030. Meanwhile, there is about as much ice at the polar regions as there was decades ago. Sea levels have hardly changed over the last century, and they are understood to have risen around 120 meters over the last 20,000 years.

"a raft of climate-related extreme weather events" - We are fortunate to be living out of the Little Ice Age. We are also fortunate we don't have the climate of 1930s with the massive heat waves.

We are lucky to live in these times of relative warmth and stability. If we see cooling happen over the coming decades, this will diminish the ability to grow crops.

"From my understanding, increased CO2, and slight global warming has had a net overall benefit." - Exactly.
