Ice Age Farmer, Carbon Pipelines and Food Shortages
A look back at a two-year-old prediction from the "Ice Age Farmer" regarding land confiscation for carbon capture pipelines and impending food shortages. The hosts evaluate the accuracy of these claims in the context of current food prices and availability.
Carbon Capture Pipelines, Food Shortage Predictions
The hosts revisit a prediction from one year ago regarding food shortages and carbon capture pipelines. While the predicted massive food shortages in the U.S. did not materialize, the construction of multi-billion dollar CO2 pipelines through the Corn Belt using eminent domain is confirmed. They speculate these pipelines could eventually be repurposed for oil.
Sustainable Agriculture, Glyphosate Shortage and Supply Chain Crisis
A severe shortage of glyphosate and nitrogen-based fertilizers is threatening global food production, with prices increasing up to five times. The push for "regenerative agriculture" and zero-tillage systems has made farming more reliant on chemicals like glyphosate to manage soil without plowing. Reports from the Ice Age Farmer and wholesale grocer associations indicate that these energy and chemical shortages are beginning to manifest as significant delays in the food supply chain.
