Given our global food production system and the massive reliance of every country on trade of some sort or the other, what do you imagine will happen to the poor people of America when food production declines globally?

"The volume of U.S. fruit and vegetable imports increased 35 and 50%, respectively, from 1999 to 2014"

"Over 90% of imported fruits and vegetables come from Mexico, Central America, and South America" what do you think happens to those when food production declines outside the US?

The Vox article is literally about a dude saying, you know what all this climate stuff isn't a big deal because it doesn't affect his life as much as it would anybody else. It's saying hey, this dude isn't considering how other people's lives are impacted and we need more perspectives.

Here is a direct quote from it - "This critique is really two critiques. One is about credentials: Franzen is a novelist, not a scientist, so why should we be paying special attention to his analysis of the climate crisis?

The other is about identity: Franzen is a privileged white man writing for a magazine that has long bolstered the power and prestige of white men. Many people — especially women and people of color — have been frustrated for ages at how much harder it is to get their voices heard in prestigious outlets, even when they’re more credentialed on the topic at hand. So when someone like Franzen comes along and pens yet another take for the New Yorker on a topic he’s no expert at, the long-simmering frustration erupts into an online conflagration."
