Terrifying Corn Supply/Demand Situation Unfolding

[CrispyQ]

35. At some point we'll be forced into doing a lot of things we don't do but should.

Arghh!! Why does it always take getting right to the edge of the cliff before we, as a collective, come to our senses? And in this century, are we going to come to our senses in time? I have my doubts.

Good reading on the whole cow/animal husbandry thing is Howard Lyman's "Mad Cowboy." He doesn't proselytize or lecture, he just tells the difference between raising cows when he was a kid & big agra's version of raising beef. The best chapter in the book is titled "Bovine Planet" & he details the impact that livestock as a food source is having on our environment, from factory farms to grazing. The last sentence in the chapter is terrifying: And with desert will come famine.

Mother Nature is about to kick our collective butt down a notch or two.
