New federal clean fuel regulations, which take effect on Canada Day, are designed to cut pollution from vehicles. Although there won't be much of a change to pump prices across the country on July 1, experts say, there will be a noticeable increase several years down the road. (Kyle Bakx/CBC)

Because of global warming there's going to be a lot of land throughout the world that will no longer be viable for agriculture.

If you're upset over the current blip in food prices caused by the temporary disruption in grain supply stemming from the conflict in Ukraine, then buckle up, it's gonna get a lot worse from here.

We will need to move agriculture to other parts of the world. That's going to mean food prices are going up no matter what we do.

Why are you concerned with having to open up new farmland in other parts of the world for ethanol, when we're going to have to move agriculture to other parts of the world either way? Seems like being upset over someone pissing in the ocean.
