Coronavirus-driven CO2 shortage threatensUS
food and water supply, officials say

And one of the largest producers of CO2 is a product that is supposed to help the environment. Ethanol production. With covid people are driving less so ethanol isn't being produced. We need to get rid of Ethanol. It's another thing that doesn't work. Just like the vaccine, masks and social distancing.

Oh, so now CO2 is our friend, is it? Well, you’re going to have to get SCOTUS to reverse their declaration that CO2 is a poisonous gas.

But CO2 is baddddddd. The science says so.

This article is a year old...but the same issue is currently happening in europe. There though the primary source for industrial quantities of CO2 is not ethanol plants but Fertilizer plants, plants run on Nat.Gas. Nat Gas prices have skyrocketed and it is no longer economically viable to keep the fertilizer, steel and other metals plants in operation. The 175% increase in Nat Gas prices is completely due to "Green" policies, tariffs, and tariffs designed to "Reduce atmospheric Co2". Those tariffs/taxes and regulations funded spending on "Green Replacement" energy sources, sources which now under-perform soooo badly that Nat Gas, Oil, Coal supplies are being diverted from industrial uses to just keep the "Lights on". This is going to be a compounding problem because...nearly ALL of europes agriculture is fertilizer dependent, they cannot even grow crops without heavy inputs/applications of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Either the fertilizer is going to have to be imported(at higher costs) or the Crops will have to be...likely BOTH. The energy shortage and costs explosion is happening now...still summer... imagine what effect shorter days , colder/longer nights will have on energy requirements just for light and heat.

Add CO2 to the list of items either in short supply or gone all because of this BS notion that Covid is the worst virus to ever invade this planet. I can't even begin to list the number of items that are no longer available in the supermarket because companies either don't have the personnel to produce them, or because the companies are operating under Covid restrictions. This needs to end immediately. There are no more excuses.

If you haven't been stocking up on essentials you haven't been paying attention. Bottled water canned goods pet food toilet paper batteries are all in short supply now on purpose. Better prepare its gonna get ugly soon. Grocery prices are sky rocketing. Sunday I went to the store to buy chicken wings for my son a 10lb bag a month ago was $23.00 it was $54.00 on sunday. This is not a product I usually buy but he does. He couldn't believe it. He went to a wholesaler and filled three deep freezers with meats. I told him three months ago to do that. At least he finally listened to me.

Since CO2 the deadliest monster since T-rex is eradicated then the green peace fanatics can rest easy they were successful

The article is a year old. What's the current status?

"In 2003, EPA ruled that it had no power to curb emissions of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping chemicals. In 2007 in the 5-4 SC case (Massachusettes v. EPA) struck down that EPA ruling. The majority opinion was written by John Paul Stevens, and was joined by Anthony Kennedy, David Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Stephen Breyer. Roberts filed the dissenting opinion, which was joined by Antonin Scalia, Clarence Thomas, and Samuel Alito. In 2003 Roberts was voting conservatively (before he was being blackmailed). I believe it became clear that Roberts was being blackmailed in the 2012 SC case (National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius), where in the majority's 5-4 decision, he sided with the liberals and decided that the Obamacare mandate "may reasonably be characterized as a tax," which is "sufficient to sustain it."

I used to have a number of aquariums full of different species of fish. There were ciclids and Angel fish, Discus, even a tank of piranhas. But what we are going through is like my aquarium of Tetras. I had about 20 of the neon striped school. What I'm getting at is the fact that I used to amuse myself by tapping on the side of the glass where they were bunched up sending them hauling fin to the other end of the tank. After they bunched up there, I'd just tap the glass and send them back to the other end. They never figured it out. I would prefer to not be a neon tetra in the governmental aquarium.

I don't trust anything the Guardian (or Independent or Telegraph, for that matter) says, and am cagey any time their reporting agrees with my view. But creating hunger cultivates societal dependence on government, which is *precisely* the Left's primary goal. The bigger famine, the better, as far as they're concerned. So if whatever is happening serves to bring food shortages to Europe, a feather in their caps, and another domino falling. They'll have more work to do for the U.S., since farmland in the midwest and in California are so much more productive...

#6....freezers require power. Think hard about that. Electric power is the next item to be both priced out of reach, and rationed, as it has been in California, where they shut down power to huge swaths of the state for a week or two at a time. Having a freezer full of food is good, but still is far from being resistant to the forces destroying the country.
