A world going hungry? How conflict and climate change disrupt global food supply | Business Beyond

The battle against hunger is quite literally, an existential one. But there was a time when winning that battle seemed within reach - as production surpluses could have meant enough food for all. But climate change, conflict, and a broken food system have threatened that goal. Ukraine, a big provider of wheat to the world, is unable to export grain amid a blockade of its Black Sea ports, such as Odesa. While millions of tonnes of grain sit stuck in silos, countries dependent on these supplies have been left in a desperate situation. Starvation and malnutrition threaten the lives of tens of millions in places like Yemen and the Horn of Africa. Supply shortages have worsened the humanitarian crises.

Rather than being interdependent nations as idiotic globalists such as Henry Kissinger love to promote, nations should be self-reliant.

Furthermore, if your definition of "standard of living" includes not being poisoned by Western civilization yourself, 'standard of living' increases under Autarky rather than decreases. It all depends on whether you use the Western model to define "standard of living", or not!
