The end of fossil fuels is the end of food.
It would almost be worth it to see them starve to death.
I meant to put “fossil” in quotes for the Poindexters.
EXACTLY what crop are her parents raising on those 3000 acres??? FOOD for others????
Pretty much.
Currently we get a one to ninety return on wheat seed planted.
You plant one pound of wheat you get ninety pounds of grain.
Back a thousand years ago it was one to four. You planted one pound of seed you got four pounds of grain. When you did not have crop failure. Which was about one year in four.
About five hundred years ago the return was one to eight.
A hundred years ago it was one to twelve.
So going back to pre wide spread use of fossil fuels would reduce our harvests by 86%.
That does not sound like a happy thing to me but if the young people in question would care to reduce their calorie intake by 86% for five years as and example as to how it should be done I would follow the results with interest.
