As oft repeated, in order for severe ideologues to retain their insufferably bad policy they must pretend not to know things. However, in the case of food shortages, the pretending about the origin of the problem has severe consequences.
Vladimir Putin’s military action against eastern Ukraine had nothing to do with the severe food shortages and inflation in Sri Lanka {link}. Nor does Putin have any influence over the Dutch government trying to stop food production {link}. Additionally, Putin has no control over Justin Trudeau’s decision to limit harvest yields by blocking the use of nitrogen-based fertilizer {link}. More importantly, it was not Vladimir Putin who forced all the western politicians to sign up for a new ‘climate friendly’ energy program that is destroying the ability of western farms to generate higher yield crops.
You do not need to be a farmer to understand that nitrogen/phosphorus-based industrial fertilizer has been the reason why farm yields have generated massive amounts of food on a global basis. The United States, Canada, the U.K. and places like the Netherlands have massively increased their ability to generate food for export, in large part due to the success of improved fertilizer and crop saving modern pesticides. Take those farming advancements away under the guise of climate change and you get a global Sri Lanka.
Those western climate and energy policies create downstream consequences. The decision to chase a new global energy policy under the name “Build Back Better,” in combination with short-sighted EU sanctions against Russia, and you get food shortages. And boy howdy are they trying to avoid taking responsibility for it.
It was not Vladimir Putin who told British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz their proactive recommendation to switch from crop-based biofuels to human food would be blocked. That G7 decision was made by Justin Trudeau and Joe Biden. {link} Even more significantly, it was not Russia who threatened the multinational energy companies about investing in Africa for expanded natural gas supplies for their fertilizer needs. That threat came from the same western government alliance, per their instructions from the World Economic Forum group {link}.
It was predictable {JUNE 21st} {June 30th} and {July 6th} that western government leaders would seek to avoid responsibility for the food crisis they created, and now we see more western media trying, desperately, to frame the Putin is to blame for global food shortages in order to protect them.
NEW YORK, July 25 (Reuters) – Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine shocked the world, forced Western countries to respond, and is driving up the cost of energy and food across the globe. High prices in the United States may spell electoral disaster for President Joe Biden’s administration in November’s congressional elections. However, the most urgent economic, social, and human crises are unfolding in poorer countries where populations face war, spillover-driven inflation, and more expensive foreign-currency debt. (more)
Joe Biden, NATO, the G7, the European Union, the World Bank, USAID, and every western leader in the United States and Europe has stated there will be food shortages.
They are not saying there might be shortages; their statements are emphatic, there will be shortages.
Accept this basic cornerstone. Then ask why not a single proactive step has been taken by any of the aforementioned institutions or governments to alleviate what they declare is a certainty. Why?
Simple question, “why?”
If all of the western nations, non-govt organizations and heads of state, are aware of a coming food crisis, why is there no proactive response?
It is a question that even the most hardcore leftists will not answer, because there is only one answer. No action is being taken because they do not want to take action. No effort to avoid the crisis is being done, because they do not want the crisis avoided.
Peel all the layers of obfuscation and causation away, and what we find is the epicenter of the food shortage is directly the result of the Build Back Better agenda. A post-pandemic western government deliberate decision to radically change global energy development. In succinct terms, the climate change agenda.
However, regardless of how you feel about the validity of “climate change,” the cause of diminished food supplies is purposeful. It is not climate change causing food shortages. It is the purposeful action taken under the guise of mitigating climate change that is causing the shortage of food.
The collective Build Back Better energy policy of western governments’ is the reason for massive increases in energy costs, massive oil price jumps, gasoline price increases, significant increases in chemical costs, increases in diesel fuel costs, shortages of fertilizer created using natural gas, and the end result is lower crop yields, higher farming costs and eventually, food shortages. They know this.
All of the organizations and government who have been decrying the future shortage of food, know it is the radical shift in energy resource development that is creating the crisis. This acceptance of reality begins the framework to understand just how entrenched and committed these western leaders are toward their beloved climate change agenda.
We do not yet know the scale of food shortage, but we do know -and everyone admits- there will be severe shortages on a global basis.
Western leaders will not and cannot accept the blame for what they are doing. So, they will blame-cast, excuse and justify what is likely to surface. Food shortages blamed on the Ukraine conflict, Russian aggression, climate change and any various iteration of justification that does not identify the true cause, their energy ideology.
I’m not so sure that people fully understand what the entire system of western government would be willing to do to avoid being blamed for avoidable death on a potential scale that is quite alarming. All of the western leaders, institutions and governments are on the same boat. They are all in this together.
Two points:
1: Ed Dowd has suggested the play here is not climate ideology it is to bankrupt the farmers and swoop in and buy up all of their land.
2: It is possible and beneficial to move away from nitrogen fertilizers by using mixed crops and maintaining permanent cover. Look up ‘Nitrogen Solution’ talk by Christine Jones on YouTube. Most fascinating thing I’ve learned lately. She thinks climate change is baloney btw.
It’s exactly what it is about.

Just saw Ireland has now joined the Netherlands and Canada with reducing nitrogen fertilizer by 30-70%.
I guess they forgot about the potato famine of 1847.
Turns out the ‘taters weren’t so much of a bad effect as the British Crown was..
.
.
“The more things change, the more they stay the same”
pls explain yr statement
Well Murray, I think he is trying to point out the fact, that, during the so called famine in Ireland and blamed on the destruction of the staple diet of potatoes by blight, British ships were lining up in Cork, Dublin and Waterford docks being loaded with beef pork and dairy produce to feed the hungry in London and other British cities.
Ie it was a mainly induced famine or Great Hunger. Do you suppose our ‘betters’ will go hungry next time?
The Irish planted dominantly one variety of potato, which turned out to be susceptible to a fungus, which spread and destroyed the entire crop.
totating crops, and planting different varieties would have saved them.
So, the big question I have is:
When is JSOC and its unique capabilities going to be deployed against the WEF? This renegade globalist organization is now clearly a thr eat to the United States.
Yep, how much longer will we all have to wait for this action to take place.
The China virus didnt kill enough people
The “vaccines” aka clot shots didnt kill enough people.
Time for plan C-STARVE THEM and LET THEM FREEZE
Russia’s criminal war of conquest against Ukraine is certainly disruptive to the food chain, especially in parts of the Third World. The fact that the Globalist Left, in the face of this food crisis, is actively working to REDUCE agricultural productivity is unfathomable.
The Globalist left…of which you are a part?
What planet did you say you were from?
And here we continue to waste 40% of our corn crop to make ethanol for fuel. Even though the ethanol contains less energy than what goes into making it.
it’s food. It should be used as food.
And it also produces Nitrous Oxide when used in engines, one of the reasons it was limited to 10% max in the summer because it increases “smog” in cities.
It’s ironic that they are now increasing it to 15% in fuel as that is the same pollutant that they’re blaming on nitrogen fertilizer….
So, I have to set the record straight for the 30% reduction that Trudeau is talking about. It is an efficiency factor that they want to increase, that will lead to a 30% reduction in the NEEDED USE OF Nitro based fert.
I know this, because I work for Mosaic Co and we have been actively pursuing and implementing this concept for 8 years now.
With that being said, I still think Trudeau is still a commie punk of Castro dissent, but I had to add my personal take on the matter, because the CTH is getting this part wrong and has now wrot a couple articles about it.
Has NOTHING to do with farmers becoming efficient. The Globalists already have the efficiency they want planned. Miles Guo was sent by China to the Netherlands last year to scope out areas to put in the enormous indoor robotic grow facilities.
It is happening around the world but you are not hearing about it. However they are so far ahead in the planning in the Netherlands it cannot be hidden anymore.
In the Netherlands it’s about land confiscation for the new Trizonesia- or Tri State City. The WEF/UN Global Throne.
https://leserbriefe.info/?p=235928
In the Netherlands, where farmers are protesting the insane new Climate Change proposals, which will effectively put them out of business, the globalists have passed a new law that says police will NOT be prosecuted if they kill any anti-Liberal World Order protesters.
It’s really not about climate change- of course you know that- it’s about land confiscation for the Global Elites new city.

He lost me towards the end when he said, “We’re gonna vote for law and order!”
He wasn’t saying what I’d hoped he was saying. He’s talking about people in larger cities like New York being fed up with high crime and reduced policing.
“You can ignore reality but you cannot ignore the consequences of ignoring reality”…..Ayn Rand and one of my fav quotes.
Let me to give you another “Only the small secrets need to be protected. The really large ones are hidden by public incredulity”….Marshall McLuhan
Both of these quotes seem to work together and Rand’s is coming true before our very eyes. This isn’t the Plutocrats and Globalists pretending; this is every day citizens of Western Nations lying to themselves.
At this point I am not sure any of it is reversible still it would be helpful to try. It’s now a question of when and what does it look like. The scary thing about the food shortage potential is how hard it will be to pull out of it once it kicks off. We can rabble rouse all we want and shout at the sky. There’s no government or corporate entity that can solve it without a long term plan.
I was told something similar to the Marshall McLuhan quote by an Air Force Colonel in 2012. He said “The biggest secrets are the easiest to keep. Even when they get out, no one believes them and once they are out in public, denial is as easy as a brief laugh and commenting that this has been been thoroughly discussed in the past.” We were talking about Roswell.
If our masters are concerned about enough food for all people in America, why are they sponsoring an invasion of millions of illegal aliens into the country? Like all the shocking policies of this regime, it is too stupid to be anything but purposeful malice/aggression.
It’s a great point. I don’t believe you this (since 2021) had a thing to do with replacement of the existing culture population, not at this point. I think they’re bringing them here for same reasons as you mentioned. When things get scarce like food, energy and such it will be that much more chaotic and violent. Keep the proles occupied.

With the present fertilizers, our farmers have gotten great yields but the nutrition in the food has deteriorated greatly over the last decades because of overarming. the plants look great but the percentages of minerals has dropped greatly which has been part of the reason we have so much chronic disease.
Dr. Joel Wallach did 12 years of research for NIH back in the late 70’s and early 80’s that proved populations get chronic disease when they have deficiencies in vitamins, minerals and fatty and amino acids. For instance, a lack of vitamin D allows flu bugs to cause sickness. The reason there is very little or no flu in summer is because people get it from the sun. When we go to fall, vitamin D drops like a stone unless you supplement and people start getting colds. And YES, this includes Covid!
You read the tea leaves and you seethe target has been Russia for some time.
And Russia has escalated this as it leads the world off the dollar reserve system.
I have started to see some anti-China movement of late as well. Early stages but noteworthy. So you know things are really starting to escalate.
It’s on and it’s not about Ukraine folks.
I imagine that we are going to see a new wave of Canadians moving to the USofA to escape their failed country. As I plead to Kalifornians, I will plead to Kanadians: Remember the reasons why you are moving to other states or country and leave them behind you and join our free states as free men and women.
we’re all kulaks now
Left unsaid is that farmers have become much more discriminating in the application of fertizers and pesticides. Soil is regularly tested for nutrient values, fields are monitored by drones for signs of pest/weed infestation and chemicals are usually only applied where necessary. Now my grandad grew up on a multi-crop self sufficient farm and still practiced things like rotating fields out, “clovering” and allowing beef cattle to graze and manure the field while the clover re-fixed nitrogen into the soil.
