No, I have no issues with food shortage, But a simple fact remains, crops are dependent on the sun and weather. What if for some freak reason, ie, a repeat of recent history, a year with no summer???

Or, in the case of California, which provides 90% of the nation's food, prolonged drought.

 Quoting: Doomish


Big Agriculture is the problem. Small, local farms is the solution. Along with taking personal responsibility in growing all you can.

Smaller farms manage rainfall far better as a whole.

Watch out for the "organic" labels as they have to pay big bucks to appease the USDA labeling requirements.

Sadly, as the original post states, the average person won't know what hit them till it's too late.

Re: HAVE WE REACHED, "PEAK FOOD"?? IT IS IN OUR FUTURE, NO DOUBT IN MY MIND.
Desert Fox - you are correct in thinking that more food gets thrown away than is consumed. At least, in the Produce catagory. I do not have a link, but recently read that ~52% of all Produce grown in the United States goes into the trash. 52 percent, more than half. Absolute insanity.

All of that energy, effort, time taken to grown and transport all of that food - wasted.

I am a Produce Manager at a major food retailer in the North Midwest and I can tell you, an astronomical amount hits the trash. Recently, at least with us it has started to be composted rather than thrown out, but still...

Why do they do it? Because at least on their balance sheets, it is more profitable to do so rather than selling the second-rate/bruised/spotted/etc produce at or below cost.

This way of life is completely unsustainable, if we continue along this path we will see Peak Everything, unlimited growth in a finite ecosystem, yeast in a petri dish...

That trajectory [of needing to double food production] is not a given but more of a warning. It means we have to change how we eat and use food,” said Jonathan Foley, the director of the California Academy of Sciences.

While the peak production study suggests a doubling of food output could well be impossible, Dr Foley points out that, since 30 to 40 per cent of the food grown globally for human consumption never gets eaten, eliminating waste would go a long way to feeding the growing population

Peak food pfft - what a bunch of morans!


In the future farms will be redundant - regarded as an unhealthy, cruel inefficient disease ridden way to grow food.

You will need cheap energy though, something like an ECAT.

Huge warehouses with aquaponics layered every metre a thousand metres high - grown twice as fast, disease free picked and tended by robots.

Meat tissues grown in the same way - float them on the oceans if you need to.

I am thinking of our own gardens, and not wasting food.

School cafeterias have 2 categories of foods:

"must offers" and

"must takes".

the must offer foods MUST be offered to the student, who may take them or decline them.

This saves waste!

the "must takes" cannot be declined. The student must take them whether they intend to eat them or not.

and boy do they fill the trash barrels in schools.

make all foods voluntary in the lunch line, or better yet, tell the kids to bring from home.

My kids attended a private school that could not afford a cafeteria. No waste there.

Re: HAVE WE REACHED, "PEAK FOOD"?? IT IS IN OUR FUTURE, NO DOUBT IN MY MIND.
Of course no one replied to the comment about the massive amount of crops/land dedicated to animal agriculture. You guys really do love your bacon more than your Grandchildren, that's for sure.

Bacon vs. land?
Pigs are not grazers like cattle... They will eat all that you give them, mostly.

Why does one need to choose between bacon and crops?

Don't make me choose. What do you have against pork? They paddock when crops are done.

What are we missing here?

Yes, you are. Please research this topic.

So you choose to ignore meat? Enjoy that then.
