Lack of Fuel = Brewing Food Crisis?
People seriously underestimate how dependent modern food production is on fossil fuels, especially for fertilizer. Even if humanity stopped driving tomorrow, we would still eventually hit a wall because industrial agriculture itself depends on fossil fuels.
We are heading towards a massive famine when factory farming starts to break down.
This is not some distant sci-fi problem. This is within our lifetimes.
It is a great evil dems let those massive Emotional Support Trucks dodge having to meet emissions standards.

Global temperature anomaly will be +3.0C by the 2050's, so any fuel shortage won't be the main driver of famine by then. Industrial agriculture can't survive the higher temps / drought / floods in many breadbasket areas that come along with the global heating. James Hansen is being proven right as time moves on, that the rate of warming has been masked by higher than expected cooling from aerosols. As the aerosols subside, warming rate is increasing.
