Famine is coming next ...

[stompix]

the ice caps once had melted in the past that is why there are ancient antarctica maps which there are actually inhabitants of that region back when it wasn't full of ice.

Antarctica was fully covered with ice and with no vegetation left around 15 million years ago, there were no homo sapiens at that time, the only inhabitants were the ancestors of penguins. 

 this climate change is just the natural cycle of earth.  that part of earth right now isn't reached by sunlight.
 

Oh really? So there is no light in Antarctica? [urlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_sun]Surprise[/url] and surprise!

Obviously there are some people who still deny the scientifically proven facts, but we can't just let the earth get destroyed because of idiots.

The earth survived through a lot of far worse things than what we're doing, even with all that humans throw at it, it survived a hit 100 billion times more powerful than a nuclear blast, it will keep on living. That aside, we as a species might not be that lucky

If the government does not move quickly to deal with the economic crisis. The fear is that there is hunger everywhere,
therefore I don't blame some countries for providing stimulus to people affected by COVID-19.By printing money, although
there will be an negative effect in the future. However, it must be admitted that the government currently does not have
many choices.

[yohananaomi]

Human civilization that is increasingly advanced seems to have no positive impact on nature, where disasters often occur without our realizing that the causes are our own. I hope that it will get better soon and there will not be a famine that hits us all.

Human greed to mine and exploitation on a large scale which causes the world's eco-system to change rapidly, this can be seen from the development of the unpredictable seasons when the rainy season, when is spring, when the music is dry.

this has indicated that the emptiness of nature plundered by humans without considering being able to restore nature again. The covid-19 outbreak is one of the pandemics that may occur because of deviant behavior.

We hope that there has been an awareness that the earth also needs human touch in a good way so that there are reciprocal, hopefully the covid-19 outbreak will not cause many countries to experience a new outbreak, namely hunger.

However, it must be admitted that the government currently does not have
many choices.

Indeed. I guess the government of every nations right now are on the verge of checkmate. If they borrowed money from powerful countries, the national debt will rise; if they print more money, inflation is expected; if they will solely rely on their resources and capabilities then they may not fixed the problem or have a slow progress at least tsk . That's why we can't put all the blame on them. Yeah it's their obligation to give solution in this problem but it doesn't necessarily mean that we will just sit back and relax and the worse is throwing tons of complaints in social media (I really hate that kind of people). No one wants this pandemic so let's help and cooperate.

[ecnalubma]

If you have fear of famine then start producing your own food by growing livestock, planting crops and vegetables. Food shortages would not be an issue if people just know how to produce their own food, the problem now is we are so dependent with the market and grocery stores we are even not bothered if its produced artificially or we have zero knowledge at all.

[slashz9]

Time to stock up on a few decades of MREs, not that anyone can afford that many.

If you'd shown someone even 50 years ago what the world population would be by now they would've automatically assumed we would all be starving to death yet we're muddling along. Let's hope we can improvise our way out of a tight spot if there is one.

well I agree, just as humans are trapped in a deep pit, are they going to stay there without doing anything?
Of course not, humans will live no matter how we have faced various kinds of crises and things that were impossible in the past but are materializing now.
there are countless examples, and what the OP said was only a fraction of the total.

[iyamoxjhian]

I guess its payback time.. There were lot people who has a lot before the pandemic started but spends and spends their money without checking if its necessity or leisure... they have not prepare for saving up some for times like this... And know they realized their expenses before the pandemic happens..too bad its already late to realized this.. But what tgey can do is make things right... earn something to save up as long as youre doing good thing and never abuse anyone. Atleast God will pour some little help.

[Vishnu.Reang]

Modern life and its reality is what we are feeling today and that is driving towards causing more harm than it is doing good.

We can talk about famine when there are no planting or less of it.

As irrigation has taken over natural way of tilling the soil for produce but with its own effect.

Ozone depletion and global warming etc are all human cause to move away from nature in wanting to better their living.
Can we say these are even the major causes of numerous frequent death in this time in the societies compared to the bible days.

Humans are forced to move away from nature because their population is constantly increasing. As of now, the human population stands at 8 billion. Nature can't feed this many people. That's why we are forced to use chemical fertilizers and pesticides, in order to improve the productivity of the land. Now there is no going back, unless we are able to reduce our population.

[smyslov]

This is one of the consequences of climate change.

Yeah, but so many people are denying it or downplaying the consequences. I really hope humanity will get to the point realising climate change as a huge threat for humankind.

This is the price of industrial revolution, we did not address this issue when our scientist started to warn us about this coming catastrophe and now it's almost late, so many iceberg are melting down soon there will be flash flood everywhere we have seen a lot of tsunamis and tidal waves
and this decade is very much different from all the previous that we have.

[Kakmakr]

I spoke to a friend the other day and he reckons that we are seeing the "End of Times" as he describe it. He is also one of the people who repeats the same doomsday prophecy, every time when there are some kind of catastrophe.

Yes, in Biblical times.. prophecies was made that predicted many of the catastrophe scenarios that we are experiencing now, but nature has a way to heal it self and we see this "balancing" reaction, when there is some factors that are introduced to tip the balance. (Some animals adapted to the change and/or nature went into a cycle to repair the damage.

This virus pandemic, might just be nature's way to "balance" the burden that humans are placing on it's natural resources.  (Just look what happened when restrictions were implemented... oceans was cleaner and some animals even walked around in cities)

Rich people never spend money on something which is costly for them, if they do then they are just pretends to b rich. People own hard assets are rich by now but the one who owned stocks lost a lot but many used it as an opportunity to  make more profits by getting the shares for cheaper than ever.Never blame God, its their responsibility to hange their life if they want to come up or else they will become poor forever.

Every year we are visited by famines it become a part of our seasons, typhoons are more stronger and dry season are longer than it were than 2 decades ago, our government is spending a lot of money from this natural calamities, this is the reason why our government cannot sustain our other program because huge funds are allocated for calamities and famines.

[wxa7115]

Yeah, but so many people are denying it or downplaying the consequences. I really hope humanity will get to the point realising climate change as a huge threat for humankind.

That could be without a doubt a factor but to me the most important factors are overpopulation and overexploitation, the world as big as it is is not infinite and yet we are using resources at an incredible rate for things that quite honestly are not bringing us too much of a benefit or none at all in the name of just getting a little bit of profits.

Basically we are using the resources of the planet only thinking in the short term benefit this will bring without thinking on the long term disaster this will cause for future generations, and if I am honest I do not see a way to change this as most people do not care about it and will only care once they have the problem face to face and at that time it will be too late to do anything.

This is kind of situation is sad because the money that ought to be spend on something that will give citizens betterment are reserved for calamities and famines but i think the government need to empower alot of people that could assist them or help their community when famine happen.

[el kaka22]

I fear that before famine comes, the lack of water will come. You may think that the world is mostly water but almost all of that is salt water that is not drinkable, I am telling you this as a person who had to drink sea water for 3 days because there was no other water around me and I can tell you that it really hurts after a while, the first day is usually okay but around noon of second day you start to feel that even your tongue gets bigger and can't fit in your mouth and on third day I didn't even want to drink anymore, I knew it was my last day so I wanted to just get thirsty and stay thirsty instead of drinking salt water.

When all the good clean drinkable waters stop, it is going to be a huge challenge to make sure all those oceans can be turned into drinkable water, possible with tech we have but it is also impossible to do it for everyone in the world with how much infrastructure needed.

[TIDOVEE]

This is a serious matter, I had thought the change in climate was only in some parts of Africa, it has been a big time concern to farmers, crop yield is so poor, only farmers who can afford irrigation are striving and how many could afford it here, in this status quo that people are still struggling to survive, after escaping COVID 19, will cost of feeding still add to what people are going through? We really need divine intervention.

[(o)(o)ilikeboobs(o)(o)]

Climate change is happening, the cause of climate change is largely caused by humans. Companies, multinational corporations, and the history of the industrial revolution have seriously devastated the environment. Hunger can be overcome by using crop technology to increase yields, but that only happens in developed countries. Poor countries will have to bear the consequences themselves because they do not have the technology or any methods to increase food productivity.
We are destroying the earth and the environment on our own. Climate change won't stop if we don't know how to protect the environment.

[bitzizzix]

We must realize that natural laws occur almost every year like a disaster or anything that can harm humans, as happened in several countries that are experiencing this pandemic.
and many people are starving and losing their jobs or livelihoods due to this pandemic and this is a serious problem for the government which must be taken seriously, because many people have died of hunger or have other diseases and all are considered infected with the virus.
As in the country where I live, the number of deaths is increasing due to starvation due to lack of income or not being able to make ends meet due to government regulations that make it difficult for them.

[grabpopcorn536]

In the face of an increasing population, we do not have enough land to live and cultivate. Nature is constantly changing, grasshoppers, pests develop, crops cannot yield as well as before.
To overcome famine, each country should change its diet to be more suitable. European countries have now reduced meat in their diets and added more grains. They don't use bread more often and instead use rice. I think that science and technology will change and there will be many new cultivars and new breeds of livestock with higher productivity and quality.

The third horseman is coming ....the Final Battle Near !

Even before this pandemic happened, some countries are already experiencing acute hunger like Africa, Afghanistan, Sudan, Venezuela, and Yemen. And now that we’re in the middle of pandemic, most of these countries hunger issues have worsen and was predicted to  experience famine this year.

We’re aware that overpopulation is an issue that needs to be addressed as well. Some countries resources are very limited compared to others, hence limiting food distribution to most areas especially to the far away lands. The people from the province and isolated islands tend to be malnourished because of lack of food and clean water.

In addition, climate change is contributing a lot of problem to the agriculture industry. Because of climate change, the seasons of harvest changed for some crops and it even brought stronger typhoons that destroy the farmlands.

Maybe we aren’t experiencing famine at the moment, but it’s better to be prepared when the time comes. Whether you like to admit it or not, most places are already suffering from it. Now is the time to use sustainable methods and techniques. We must not rely to other countries commodities and instead cultivate, produce, and support our own.
