From the abundance of the Green Revolution to the famine of the Green Agenda

 The Green Revolution, which began with the introduction of industrialised ammonia fertilisers, brought about an era of abundance and transformed global food production, feeding roughly half of the world’s population.

Now, the Green Agenda threatens the world’s food supply by reducing nitrogen fertilisers and shifting away from hydrocarbon fuels, potentially leading to a worldwide famine.

In the following, Aussie17 notes the parallels to the Biblical prophecy of the Pale (or Green) Horse, whose rider is named “Death.”

More than two years ago, I wrote about the coming dangers of the modern Green Agenda and its connection to the fourth horseman of the Apocalypse – the Pale Horse (also called the Green Horse) of Revelation. Predicting exact dates is impossible, but the signs we see unfolding today align closely with this prophecy.<<<Read More>>>...

The Coming Famine: Why Millions Will Starve and What You Must Do Now

 I am writing this in May of 2026, and I am not making a prediction. I am issuing a warning based on hard evidence. By the end of 2027, if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed due to the war provoked by the Trump administration and its Israeli allies, millions of people will starve to death. This is not a drought or a plague -- it is a man-made catastrophe. The conflict in the Middle East has blocked the Strait of Hormuz, cutting off 25% of the world's natural gas supply that is essential for fertilizer production. Most people think famine only happens in distant countries, but I will show you why the United States is not immune and why you need to act now.

As I have reported repeatedly, the closure has already cut off the flow of fertilizer to the world's most vulnerable nations, and the food system is now collapsing in slow motion. "The Strait of Hormuz, the critical artery for global energy and fertilizer shipments, is effectively closed". This is not a temporary supply hiccup; it is a deliberate tremor of a global energy collapse. Every day this conflict continues adds some calculable number of deaths in 2027. This is a holocaust-scale tragedy that is entirely preventable -- if the war ends and the ships flow again...<<<Read More>>>...

The Coming Food Crisis: Why You’ll Find Gravel in Your Grain and Wood Chips in Your Bread

 I’ve spent 12+ years analyzing food quality in my laboratory, and what I’m seeing today terrifies me. Viral videos are now surfacing that allegedly show wood chips embedded in commercial bread loaves, and produce that would have been tossed a decade ago is now filling grocery shelves. The coming food crisis isn’t a distant threat; it’s already starting.

As a food scientist, I believe we are witnessing the systematic degradation of the world’s food supply. Fertilizer shortages ignited by ongoing wars, combined with the deliberate lowering of quality standards, mean that consumers will soon find inedible debris in their staples. This is not about a single bad batch -- it’s about a broken supply chain that prefers volume over safety. Here’s why this matters, and what you can do about it.

The root of the problem lies in the energy and fertilizer crisis. War in the Middle East and Eastern Europe has disrupted global fertilizer supplies, driving costs through the roof. Farmers, squeezed by rising input prices and stagnant crop prices, are forced to cut corners. One common shortcut is to run harvesting equipment at maximum aggression, which sometimes pulls up rocks, dirt, and debris along with the grain. As Dale Allen Pfeiffer documents in Eating Fossil Fuels, the decline in energy availability directly impacts agricultural productivity and forces unsustainable practices.

Meanwhile, quality control mechanisms are being quietly dismantled across the supply chain. Buyers who once rejected contaminated shipments now accept them because there is no alternative stock. The 21WIRE news report on 2026 trends warns that “trade turbulence and economic instability will persist,” and that the US, European, and UK economies face a difficult year . When every link in the chain is compromised, the end result can be frequent contamination of food staples with unusual matter (to say the least)....<<<Read More>>>...

The Greater War is Just Beginning: A Deliberate Campaign of Human Extermination

 As I survey the geopolitical landscape with each passing day, the unthinkable is becoming a daily reality. The Strait of Hormuz, the critical artery for global energy and fertilizer shipments, is effectively closed. Tankers attempting to traverse the Strait have faced severe consequences, being blown up, destroyed, or sunk. As a result, insurance is virtually unattainable for vessels seeking passage. This isn't a temporary supply hiccup; it's a deliberate tremor of a global energy collapse -- an engineered crisis. 

I believe we must discard the lens of conventional geopolitics. The real lens is what I call 'Engineered Energy Scarcity.' When the news feeds show explosions at the Haifa refinery or confirm the destruction of Qatar's LNG trains, the establishment narrative demands we see 'geopolitical conflict.' I see something far more sinister: precise, surgical strikes on the very architecture of human civilization. This isn't about regional war; it's the opening move in a larger, planetary-scale agenda. In my view, this is a coordinated effort to engineer a global famine and depopulate humanity. 

The globalists learned from COVID that they could command mass obedience through engineered crises. The pandemic was a large-scale psychological operation to test mass obedience, compliance strategies, and depopulation via vaccines. Their failure to achieve desired depopulation milestones via bioweapons led them to a more brutal, effective strategy: shutting off energy and food.

The lockdowns were a test. The real plan is to lock down the global supply of fertilizer, fuel, and food itself. The closure of the Strait of Hormuz has severely disrupted the global supply of nitrogen fertilizers, which are essential for modern agriculture. Approximately half of all global food production is dependent on the use of fertilizer. Without fertilizer, crop yields would drop precipitously. This is not an accident. It's a shift from bioweapons to resource warfare, a more direct path to extermination....<<<Read More>>>...

The Window Is Closing: How the Iran Conflict Just Unleashed a Global Famine Trigger

 The United States and Israel have struck Iran, and the consequences are already cascading far beyond the Middle East. This is not merely another regional skirmish; it is the ignition of a global food catastrophe that will unfold with terrifying speed. 

The Strait of Hormuz, a critical artery for global energy and fertilizer shipments, is effectively closed. This single act has severed a massive portion of the world's natural gas supply, the foundational feedstock for modern agriculture. 

If nothing changes, the price of staple foods in American and European grocery stores is projected to skyrocket by 8-20% by the end of this year, with far worse to follow in 2027 as depleted reserves and failed harvests compound the crisis.

The cascade from energy to fertilizer to crop yields has already begun, yet policymakers in Washington and other Western capitals appear blind to the coming consequences. As one analysis starkly warns, a military conflict 'could be devastating' for global nitrogen and phosphate markets. Experts are sounding the alarm, but the political class, perhaps driven by foreign allegiances or sheer hubris, is failing to grasp that this war has just pulled the trigger on a global famine. The window to avert mass deprivation is closing by the hour...<<<Read More>>>...

At the end of the climate change illusion lies the poverty trap

The German government is continuing to defend its “green patronage economy” through subsidies despite what will be a chaotic end to the eco-socialist project, Thomas Kolbe writes.

Europe is trapped in a debt spiral, with countries using debt to finance their ideological projects, such as the green transition. The debt crisis will ultimately lead to a growing state apparatus, inflation and the confiscation of private capital, with heirs, asset holders and small business owners paying the bill.

Politicians, meanwhile, are relying on delayed price effects to obscure the economic damage of their interventions.

On Friday, the federal cabinet agreed to introduce a new EV subsidy. Roughly three billion euros are set to flow into this bloodless market segment over the coming years – a drop in the bucket compared to the vast sums used to artificially keep the green patronage complex alive. But it is a signal.

The decision joins a long list of political misfires in recent months – a list unlikely to end with subsidised industrial electricity, heat pumps or refinancing packages for wind turbines. The state simply has too much money at its disposal to be forced to abandon its wasteful, destructive project.

For Bavaria’s minister-president Markus Söder, the revival of this failed subsidy instrument was cause for a small celebration. He promised a “huge boost” for the domestic market, claiming state intervention would secure value creation and jobs – a thoroughly “Söderized” view of reality.

Once again, Söder proved that his personal learning curve has flattened into a downward-sloping line – a phenomenon broadly visible across European politics....<<<Read More>>>...

Gates and Rockefeller fund a report which describes a power grab of the global food system

Gates, Rockefeller, UN, WEF globalists want total control over world food supply and what goes on your plate, a plan that’s tightly connected to their push for digital IDs and digital “money,” Leo Hohmann writes.

The global war on food continues to chug along under the radar of all the other problems going on in the world.

Some years ago, there was a YouTuber named Christian Westbrook whose channel, The Ice Age Farmer, kept us informed on trends impacting the global food supply. Christian’s channel mysteriously disappeared in November 2022 and we don’t get nearly enough information on this important topic. He was warning back then that the globalists wanted us to eat their unhealthy, ultra-processed bioengineered food and to make that happen, they needed to reduce our access to healthy, whole foods....<<<Read More>>>....

They’re Going to Starve Us and Freeze Us to Death

 In 2020, it was claimed that the Earth experienced significant climate events that were direct consequences of human-induced climate change, including large wildfires, intense hurricanes and ice loss. The UN, as usual, was pushing the anthropogenic climate change crisis narrative. In March 2019, the World Meteorological Organisation (“WMO”) – “the United Nations system’s authoritative voice on the state and behaviour of the Earth’s atmosphere” – had published its ‘State of the Global Climate in 2018’ report, highlighting “record sea level rise, as well as exceptionally high land and ocean temperatures over the past four years.”

In March 2020, WMO’s ‘State of the Global Climate in 2019’ report described “the tell-tale physical signs of climate change, such as increasing land and ocean heat, accelerating sea level rise and melting ice, contributed to making 2019 the second warmest year on record.”

Media coverage of climate change got bigger and better in 2020, according to Yales Climate Connections. “The additional coverage, coupled with increased weather extremes, helped change public opinion,” it said and went on to say that despite the ongoing covid pandemic, climate change did not disappear from public conversations and the pandemic-related economic slowdown failed to significantly reduce the drivers of climate change.

In response to the covid pandemic, then Prince Charles and the World Economic Forum (“WEF”) launched “The Great Reset” in June 2020. If the covid pandemic was not planned, then Klaus Schwab must be a super-fast writer because he published his book ‘COVID-19: The Great Reset’ on 9 July 2020.

As part of the Great Reset initiative, Schwab, WEF founder and then executive chairman, was a prominent figure in promoting the recent use of the concept “build back better.” The phrase “Build back better” was first used in the United Nations’ 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami report and gained prominence because it was a favourite catchphrase of former US President Bill Clinton when he was the UN Special Envoy for Tsunami Recovery.

By October 2020, “build back better” had exploded onto the scene with politicians and their collaborators across the world parroting the phrase as a mindless mantra....<<<Read More>>>...

Police are blocking the massive farmers’ protest planned for 19 November in London

A planned mass demonstration by farmers against the UK government’s inheritance tax changes has been significantly scaled back by the National Farmers Union (NFU) as it has been blocked by police restrictions.

Initially, thousands of farmers were expected to converge on London on 19 November to protest the new tax regime, which will impose a 20% inheritance tax on agricultural assets worth over £1 million.

However, the NFU announced that the event would be limited to 1,800 attendees, citing “legal issues” and “logistical constraints.” This move has been criticised by some farmers, including Jeremy Clarkson, who accused the NFU of being complicit in the government’s efforts to suppress the protest.

Clarkson, a prominent farmer and TV personality, had initially planned to ferry a group of farmers from the Cotswolds to London for the protest. However, he was forced to abandon his plans due to the restrictions imposed by the NFU and the Metropolitan Police.

The police have maintained that they have not banned the protest outright, but rather are working with organisers to ensure a peaceful and safe event. The police statement emphasised that they apply the same legislative framework to all protest notifications, without favour or prejudice.

Despite the scaled-back protest, farmers remain vocal in their opposition to the inheritance tax changes. Many believe the new regime will devastate family farms and rural communities, leading to food shortages and economic hardship.

The controversy has sparked debate about the government’s treatment of farmers and the two-tier standards in policing protests. While pro-Palestinian rallies have been allowed to proceed with larger numbers, the farmers’ protest has been restricted.

Clarkson questioned why pro-Palestine and Just Stop Oil demonstrations had the green light to go ahead in greater numbers than the farmers were being permitted.

“Perhaps if I had draped my tractor in a Palestinian flag it would be different,” he commented in the Sun. “It seems that if you are from Just Stop Oil or protesting about Gaza, you can do what you want. But farmers are treated differently by a government that is waging an all-out war on the countryside.”

The dispute highlights the ongoing tensions between farmers and the government over agricultural policy and taxation. The inheritance tax changes take effect in April 2026 and farmers will continue to fight for their rights and livelihoods.

At the same time, the public is getting behind UK farmers. A week ago, we published an article about the farmers’ protest on 19 November. In that article, we mentioned a petition which at the time of writing had just under 71,000 signatures. Less than six days later, the petition has more than doubled and it has 174,693 signatures. If you want to support our farmers and help them to survive the Government’s destructive agricultural policies, you can start by signing the petition HERE....<<<Read More>>>>...

UK government’s starvation policy

 Six decades of government-backed policies promoting agribusiness and pharmaceutical inputs over sustainable farming practices have created a perfect storm. The policies have led to a loss of soil nourishment and biodiversity, making the nation vulnerable to food shortages.

Historically, the country has maintained a 60% self-sufficiency rate in home production, but this figure has been declining and the UK’s domestically produced food is now at 32% of requirements.

Additionally, the modern consumer is ingesting a toxic and nutrient-depleted diet and major supermarket chains hold significantly less food reserve than before.

The future of farming and food production is under threat as oligarchs and their collaborators suggest that traditional farming may not be needed in the near future. This is all linked to global initiatives related to achieving net zero emissions, which are impacting agricultural production worldwide.

Julian Rose warns that there is little time left to act and avert a full-scale food/farming crisis. The UK must reverse its top-down approach and adopt sustainable agricultural practices to ensure food security and sovereignty. Failure to do so will result in a protracted process of starvation, with devastating consequences for the nation’s health, economy and social fabric....<<<Read More>>>....

Globalists will use carbon controls to stop you from growing your own food

 Don't believe everything you read. They may well  have been planning this in their psychotic agenda, but it will never happen. In reality, we are watching the pantomime to show everyone what was meant to happen ...

+++++++++++++++++++++++++ 

In early 2020 in the midst of the covid lockdowns, blue states run by leftist governors pursued mandates with extreme prejudice. In red states like Montana, after the first month or two most of us simply ignored the restrictions and went on with life as usual. It was clear that covid was not the threat federal authorities made it out to be. However, in states like Michigan the vice was squeezed tighter and tighter under the direction of shady leaders like Gretchen Whitmer.

Whitmer used covid as an opportunity to institute some bizarre limitations on the public, including a mandate barring larger stores from selling seeds and garden supplies to customers. “If you’re not buying food or medicine or other essential items, you should not be going to the store,” Whitmer said when announcing her order. The leftist governor was fine with purchases of lottery tickets and liquor, but not gardening tools and seeds.

She never gave a logical reason why she targeted garden supplies, but most people in the preparedness community understood very well what this was all about: This was a beta-test for wider restrictions on food independence. There was widespread rhetoric in the media throughout 2020 attacking anyone stockpiling necessities as “hoarders,” and now they were going after people planning ahead and trying to grow their own food. The establishment did NOT want people to store or produce a personal food supply....<<<Read More>>>...

Massive fire engulfs Texas chicken plant as global elites ramp up calls for world to stop eating meat

A massive fire is engulfing a chicken plant in Texas in yet another case of a mysterious fire affecting a food processing plant at the same time that global elites have been ramping up their calls for the world to give up meat consumption.

The fire broke out at Feather Crest Farms, which is east of the city of Kurten, Texas and around 100 miles outside of Houston. Shortly afterward, Bryan Texas Utilities announced that they would be cutting off service to 140 customers to ensure firefighters’ safety as they respond to the massive fire. This is a strong indication of just how big the fire is and how extensive the damage could be once firefighters get it under control.

Although workers were on the site when the fire broke out, there have been no injuries or deaths reported.

The fire had already consumed a building and a number of tanks by the time the earliest reports on the incident came out. The public has been instructed to avoid the area so emergency vehicles can reach the site easily as firefighters are reportedly still struggling to contain the flames. It is expected to take several days to fully contain the fire.

One of the problems is that one of the buildings on fire is made out of metal, which can raise the risk of explosion and makes it too dangerous to send firefighters inside. However, calm winds are helping the situation...<<<Read More>>>...

The Fake ‘Food as Medicine’ Agenda

The food supply is under attack. Whether it be from technocrats waging a war against real food, regulations that threaten food sovereignty or the use of toxic chemicals, humans’ right to access unadulterated, healthy food is slipping away.

The globalists behind The Great Reset have long had a monopoly on food with their patented genetically modified organisms (GMOs). The primary purpose of GMOs was to facilitate the use of the toxic herbicide glyphosate,1 which Stephanie Seneff, Ph.D., a senior research scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), presents in the next section of the symposium video. But to understand what’s coming, it’s important to understand the past.

The biotech industry used lobbying to ensure GMOs would be treated as substantially equivalent to real food, essentially bypassing the requirement to do safety testing before releasing them on the market. Their playbook is reminiscent of Big Tobacco’s tactics for a product that doesn’t harm you immediately but is detrimental gradually over time. An equally serious threat as GMOs has now emerged, however — synthetic food....<<<Read More>>>....

50 Groups Target Bill Gates on Farming and Technology: ‘You Are Part of Creating the Very Problem You Name’

 Fifty organizations dedicated to food sovereignty and food justice issues are calling out Bill Gates over his latest claim that technology is the solution to world hunger and food sovereignty.

In an “open letter” published earlier this month, the groups addressed comments Gates made, during interviews with The New York Times and The Associated Press, about The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation 2022 Report.

The letter’s lead authors, Community Alliance for Global Justice/AGRA Watch and the Alliance for Food Sovereignty in Africa, wrote:

“In both articles, you make a number of claims that are inaccurate and need to be challenged. Both pieces admit that the world currently produces enough food to adequately feed all the earth’s inhabitants, yet you continue to fundamentally misdiagnose the problem as relating to low productivity; we do not need to increase production as much as to assure more equitable access to food.”

The authors also criticized Gates’ claims that we’ve “under invested in agricultural innovation” and that the Green Revolution was “one of the greatest things that ever happened.”

Gates told The New York Times:

“Helping farmers has got to be the very top of the climate adaptation agenda. And within that, you have a lot of things like credit for fertilizer, cheap fertilizer, better seeds that we should be very intent on –– funding those things and setting ambitious goals for.”...<<<Read More>>>...

Leaked documents show British police are preparing for “greater civil unrest” this winter

 She has only been on the job for a few days, but new British Prime Minister Liz Truss has maybe a few weeks left to roll out a solid, confidence-inspiring plan to turn around Great Britain’s economy – or else face widespread unrest this fall and winter.

Police chiefs across the United Kingdom say that “economic turmoil and financial instability” has the “potential to drive increases in particular crime types,” including shoplifting, burglary, vehicle theft, online fraud and blackmail.

“Prolonged and painful economic pressure” could soon spark “greater civil unrest” similar to the 2011 London riots, reported one popular British news outlet about what is expected.

As energy prices soar, energy supplies dwindle, and the people grow increasingly restless, the U.K. is on the verge of a collapse unlike anything the country has seen in a very long time....<<<Read More>>>...

The REAL agenda behind the created food crisis

 The created food crisis, whether real or a smoke-and-mirrors psy-op, is all about tearing down the global food system and “building back better” – a new dystopian food system built by corporate monoliths and rigidly controlled in the name of the greater good.

We’re in the early stages of a food crisis.

The press has been predicting this for years, but up until now it always appeared to be nothing more than fearmongering, designed to worry or distract people, but the signs are there that this time, to quote Joe Biden, it “is going to be real”.

Nobody knows how bad it could get, except the people who are creating it.

Because the evidence is pretty clear, it is being deliberately & cold-bloodedly created. We’ve been documenting it for months.

We have Russia’s “special operation” in Ukraine driving up the price of staple foods, wheat and sunflower oil, as well as fertiliser.

We have the sudden “bird flu outbreak” driving up the price of poultry and eggs.

The soaring price of oil is driving up the cost of food distribution.

The inflation caused by huge influxes of fiat currency means families are spending more money on less food.

And as all this is happening, the US and UK (and maybe others, we don’t know) are literally paying farmers not to farm.

It’s pretty clear this The Great Reset: Food Edition. The lockdown melody with slightly different lyrics. A process of breaking down the structures already in place so we can “build back better” with a more controlled and more corporatised food system

Just as the Covid “pandemic” was said to highlight “weaknesses in the multilateral system”, so this food crisis will show that our “unstable food systems are in need of reform” and we need to ensure our “food security”…or a thousand variations on that theme....<<<Read More>>>...

Objective:Health - Globalist Food Takeover

 "Who controls the food supply controls the people" - Henry Kissinger

On today's episode of Objective:Health, we look into the globalist takeover of food. While sudden fires have been striking food processing, meat and fertilizer plants, when farmers are hurting, when supply chain issues from an orchestrated pandemic response and suicidal political sanctions are starting to be felt, an entirely traceable food infrastructure system has already been creeping in to cities around the globe.

The future of food looks grim. Traditional farmers are an endangered species. The system that's looking to replace them involve urban warehouses housing massive vertical farm infrastructure. Meat is either going to be lab grown, fake or simply non-existant. We're being encouraged to eat bugs. Gene-editing is ramping up. The stuff of dystopian science fiction is quickly approaching.

If the elites have their way, we're heading into a world where the idea of buying food directly from an independent farmer who you know and are happy to support is quickly coming to an end. The stuff in the supermarkets will be nothing but a simulacra of what we've always eaten.

Join us on this episode of Objective:Health where we talk about the globalist plan for our food supply...<<<Read More>>>...

Are Railroads Colluding To Curtail Food Production?

 CF Industries, the nation’s largest manufacturer of fertilizers, is warning its customers that fertilizer shipments will be delayed and may not reach farmers in time for the critical spring planting season because of a move by Union Pacific Railroad to limit the volume on private boxcars carried by its rail lines.

The railroad company ordered CF Industries and 29 other shippers cut their volume by 20 percent. Union Pacific says the reductions are needed to reduce congestion, but CF Industries said it would ask federal regulators to intervene and end the railroad restrictions.

Why Union Pacific would single out the nation’s largest fertilizer producer just as it is trying to get its product to farmers in time for spring planting is suspicious, to say the least.

Mike Adams is reporting that rail carriers are also partially halting transportation of livestock feed grain, potentially forcing farmers to slaughter their cows and chickens if they can’t get enough grain to feed them. This would further drive up prices of dairy products such as milk, eggs, yogurt, etc.

The railroad-mandated shipping reductions not only means shipping delays for farmers but CF Industries said it would be unable to accept new orders involving Union Pacific rail transportation for the foreseeable future.

CF Industries announced its dire predicament April 14 on its website. This disruption in the delivery of fertilizers comes at a time of steadily escalating food prices at grocery stores nationwide due to supply chain disruptions, War between Russia and Ukraine, China hording global grain supplies, weather-related crop failures and other issues, all adding up to a perfect storm for global famine.

Unless American farmers produce a bumper crop this fall, the rampant food price inflation will continue to intensify, driving prices up even faster and leading to more shortages on the store shelves heading into late 2022 and 2023.

CF Industries ships to customers via Union Pacific rail lines primarily from its Donaldsonville Complex in Louisiana and its Port Neal Complex in Iowa. The rail lines serve key agricultural states in America’s heartland, including Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Nebraska and Texas, as well as California.

Products that will be affected include nitrogen fertilizers such as urea and urea ammonium nitrate (UAN) as well as diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), an emissions control product required for diesel trucks.....<<<Read More>>>....

Global hunger crisis on the horizon as US, Britain, Australia, others deliberately demolish their own food production

The United States and many other countries are deliberately shutting down food production, increasing the possibility of a global hunger crisis. In the United Kingdom, businesses and government ministers are using the inflation crisis and rocketing fuel, energy and fertilizer costs to justify the coming decrease in food production.

“Gas prices being so sky high, it’s a worrying time,” said Tony Montalbano, who grows cucumbers in a 30,000 square meter glasshouse in southeastern England. This glasshouse supplies supermarkets with cucumber, and every square meter of it is empty. He and many other cucumber farmers who rely on glasshouses to grow cucumbers are unable to operate them due to soaring energy costs.

Elsewhere in the country, other farmers have also failed to plant peppers, eggplants, tomatoes and other crops due to soaring fuel and fertilizer prices.

“All the years of us working hard to get where we are, and then one year it could just all finish,” said Montalbano.

Last year, Montalbano noted that he paid between 0.40 to 0.50 pounds ($0.49 to $0.61) per therm (British thermal units) of natural gas. This year, he was paying 2.25 pounds ($2.75) a therm after briefly hitting a record eight pounds ($9.76) a therm in late February.

Jack Ward, head of the British Growers Association, warned that operating costs have increased to the point that farmers in Britain are unable to do anything about them. What this means, he warns, is that the industry will experience a massive contraction, as many farmers will be unable to keep their operations going without enough profits. This severely threatens Britain’s food security, and is a situation that is occurring all over the globe....<<<Read More>>>...

Collapse incoming: European nations start RATIONING food and fuel

 [Natural News]: Countries all over the world, especially in Europe, have started implementing policies that ration food and fuel.

Europe’s struggles with its food and fuel supplies began after most nations on the continent imposed economic sanctions on Russia following its invasion of Ukraine. This threatened the flow of already-critical commodities in Europe and threatened to collapse already-struggling global supply chains.

As a result, the prices of everything from oil to wheat have soared, leading to multi-decade high inflation rates. Supplies of these essential products have also dwindled after exports from Russia were completely strangled....<<Read More>>>...
