Is Ted Turner correct? Will we all be cannibals in 30 years, running around eating eachother. No crops?

Question

Should I prepare for this now, while i still have time?

What can i do to make my meat taste horrible to other people? Can I poison my own muscles and flesh so that it will kill anyone who tries to eat me?

Answer 1

Have a look at the USDA closing stocks of wheat this month. They are at a 60 year low, a mere 12% of utilization.  There is just under 1 bushel per capita: enough to feed the US population for 2-3 months.  There are other foods in the diet, so the end of the wheat supply does not mean famine immediately.  The US produces almost double the wheat it consumes, yet fails to maintain reserves to feed its own population.  Crop failures can happen with or without GW and it is foolish to be unprepared.  Other wheat exporters stop exporting when their own stocks are low.  Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Argentina and the EU all took measures to stop exports and encourage imports this year.  How much of the US 2008 crop is already sold in the futures market?  Hope for a good crop this year and tell your politicians to limit exports and build stockpiles starting this year.  If there is a poor crop this year the war games JS refers to will not be a drill.

Adrenaline alters the pH in muscles and tends to spoil the texture of meat. Stay hyper.  A discriminating cannibal won't touch you until you calm down.  If someone offers you a milk diet and free massages ... be very careful.

Answer 2

Lol, absolutely not.

Answer 3

Don't worry, it is just past time Teddy feeding time again.  He really should stop opening his mouth because he seems to have no care whatsoever what comes out of it or in it, apparently.

Answer 4

That is the premise of the movie "Soylent Green"--the book called "Make Room! Make Room!" written by Harry Harrison--which was unlikely then (1973) and more so now (we've got too much selenium and mercury in us to be healthy to eat) . Sleep well... nobody's gonna eat... unless you beg them

Answer 5

No we can make enough food that PREPOSTEROUS!!!!

Answer 6

I'm working on a BBQ sauce that go great on people.

Answer 7

Eat Ted Turner, that ought to leave a bad taste in your mouth if nothing else. Then eat only cannibals, it puts you higher on the food chain.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Just sweat it out. maybe you will be one of the lucky ones and hook up with the meanest baddest cannibals.

Answer 10

I don't know why Ted is such an optimist.  The Pentagon says we could have food riots in 20 years and the U.S. military will be deploying troops domestically this July to practicing squashing "civil disobedience" ("obedience" now being the new definition of a good democratic citizen?):

U.S. experts will stage climate war game

"U.S. foreign affairs and military experts will stage a war game this summer to study and highlight the national security threats posed by global warming.  The exercise, being staged by a coalition of seven think tanks and other non-profits called the Climate Change Consortium, will get technical assistance from the U.S. National Laboratory at Oak Ridge, Tenn., a statement from the organizers said Tuesday.  It said the exercise would be held in Washington July 27-28..."

In a ceremony that received virtually no attention in the American media, the United States and Canada signed a military agreement Feb. 14 allowing the armed forces from one nation to support the armed forces of the other nation during a domestic civil emergency, even one that does not involve a cross-border crisis.

In May 2007, WND reported President Bush, on his own authority, signed National Security Presidential Directive 51, also known as Homeland Security Presidential Directive 20, authorizing the president to declare a national emergency and take over all functions of federal, state, local, territorial and tribal governments, without necessarily obtaining the approval of Congress to do so.
