Guest Post by Martin Armstrong
A new study by the University of Colorado Boulder published on “One Earth” cites water scarcity as the top threat to food security in the next 20 years. “Multiple events occurring at the same time compound the problem,” the study noted, citing droughts, floods, heat waves, pest outbreaks, diseases, and financial and political conflicts. Over 50% of those experiencing food insecurity live in conflict regions, and increasing political instability and civil unrest will cause this figure to rise. Various agencies such as the World Bank and United Nations have cited that food insecurity reached record levels in 2021 and has increased in 2022. However, one aspect that is not often discussed is water.
Humans can survive longer without food than water. Without water, there are no crops or cattle. Other studies point to increasing global demand for water as well. A 2019 study, “Reassessing the projections of the World Water Development Report,” found that water demand increased 600% over the past century.
“Global water demand for all uses, presently about 4,600 km3 per year, will increase by 20% to 30% by 2050, up to 5,500 to 6,000 km3 per year. Global water demand for agriculture will increase by 60% by 2025. By 2050 the global population will increase to between 9.4 to 10.2 billion people, an increment of 22% to 32%.”
Agricultural needs represent 70% of water demand. The poorest nations often have less access to clean water, and these are the same areas where the population is expected to rise. The aforementioned study also states that food demand will increase by 60% by 2050.
Our model projected entering another “grand minimum,” which overtook the sun beginning in 2020 and will last through the 2050s. This will result in diminished magnetism, infrequent sunspot production, and less ultraviolet (UV) radiation reaching Earth. We are facing a global cooling period on the planet that may span 31 to 43 years. It is interesting that these studies are pointing to 2050 as the point where water will become extremely scarce as it aligns with our models’ projection for the weather as we will then enter a new sunspot cycle.

I was in a position where i had to submit ‘greenhouse gas’ information for the Colorado University study.
Those folks were on a mission to promote the climate change agenda. Got to the point where I told my supervisor I wasn’t submitting anymore numbers for ‘their agenda’. Wonder who funded their ‘study’ ?
Dementia Joe is supposedly unveiling a new crisis today. Reports say he will give a word salad formerly known as a speech to tell us we are horrible and DECLARE a climate emergency. Special powers will undoubtedly be enacted requiring tax increases and being sodomized by marginalized populations with active Monkey Pox. Those refusing or questioning will of course be racist Ultra MAGA people unfairly possessing brain cells. FJB
New study discloses the real reason behind rising seas.
They don’t need you, the consumer, any longer, bruh. Why don’t you just fade away?
“If technology can make it possible for people to live 150 years, and it isn’t possible to keep this a secret, then why not downsize the population, integrate robots, and you can have a very wealthy and luxurious life without the management headaches?.. I was having a conversation with a venture capitalist, billionaire type, and he looked at me with these amazingly dead eyes and said ‘I can take every company and completely automate it with software and robotics and fire all the humans. We don’t need them anymore.’”

It was always going to be like this.
Revolutions of 1848: Crash Course European History #26
Demons do love the darkness.
well tell him go ahead and try… being in the software profession for 30 years i can assure you it’s 99% marketing hype, but management is a true believer in the dream of being able to automate everything and fire everyone. they drank their own kool-aid.
This is their mindset. People are expendable. Do it all with tech…. until they need their jet, SUV and boats filled with fuel or repaired/replaced when things break down. Who cooks and cleans up their tidy little shitholes??? Nah. this loser would find out just how quickly he depends on ‘PEOPLE’ to cater to his sorry hiney every day, every hour.
The real problem is location. A large portion of the planet either lives in a desert or by the ocean. The ocean may be water, but obviously it is useless to consume. If you look at weather patterns, it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that precipitation tends to fall at certain geographic locations more than others. I live in an area that gets a lot of annual rainfall and snow pack for spring melt. Have we had droughts? Sure, but they were mild on the scale compared to say Arizona. We always get rain and we always get snow and I don’t see that changing.
There’s plenty of land for populations to grow, bruh. We just have to learn to drink our own urine and eat the crickets.
I moved from L.A. to the Oregon coast after the Rodney King riots.
No water problems here and it’s going to be 61 and sunny today.
I have friends and family in Ariz. that used to laugh at me….not anymore.
Location…location…location. Brookings Or.
Brookings is very nice, loved it there… Just to many communists from commiefornia there…
Not so much now. Mostly retired people, the commies were mostly young and don’t like to work and it’s boring here for the young and unaffordable. I bought my house here in 94 and there is no way I could buy it now. It rains like hell in the winter but not every day like most think and when the sun comes out it is God’s country beautiful.
Good salmon, lingcod and halibut fishing at the mouth of the Chetco and out about a mile.
We eyeballed it seriously about ten years ago… I love fly fish’n and with the river right there…. almost had me buy…
Diving would probably be so so there too. Not sure…
And they could of spent a portion of the 30 trillion debt creating massive desalination of ocean water and turned the deserts into gardens by now…. they didn’t and you don’t even need to ask why, the answer is obvious. They hate the populations and view them as the enemy.
Blame it on manipulated nature ~ we can make rain, we can stop rain (?) ~ & then blame it on the manipulable & manipulated nature of man. Oh, & calculate/manipulate “culling” of the human population, behind those blames.
Planet is covered in water, most of it already salted long before the bad guys decided salting the earth was a good tactic. (Monkey see monkey do is the highest form of flatten’ry.)
Planet is covered in even deeper oceans of “money” & technocracy.
“We” got helicopters on Mars. “We” got electric cars.
But food & water & the respect for cannibalized & largely water human life? (The poorest, driest areas will Malthusiatically increase population? Is this another way to make water & reign?)
We got the farmer Bill/ks buying up cropland (& taking breadbaskets here & there down) & acquifers … AI-AI-O(h no, Mr. Billlllll…..), old MacDonald had a Pharm.
I know “they” buy up lots of dumb muscle, too, I guess they think they got it knocked & that there’s no way a Bill/ks’ bill can ever come due? “We own it. And you can’t have it.” (Let them eat insect protein cake.)
How many ways must there be to drink “their” milkshake? (Flash-forward to the end of There Will Be Blood to see one of the many novel uses for bowling pins, too.)
Is there a point to this gibberish?
He operates at a higher level than most. He always has a point.
I only went to the third grade, but I did learn to read , but apparently not well enough to decipher the ramblings of ” higher level” intellectuals. Please enlightenment me on the point of this esoteric wisdom spewed upon this thread.
You left out “bruh”.
I’m not a higher level intellectual. I often have to remind him to dumb it down for me. It’s got to be annoying when you’re the smartest in the room, I imagine.
So. you have no clue to the meaning of this gibberish, but ‘ higher level’ is why. ha ha ha
If I read it 10 times slowly, I will eventually understand it. I just know he’s a master with language and that confuses most people.
Hmmm. A master of the oblique.
A master of gibberish
A master of confusion….ha ha ha…he’s a bureaucrat then?
Try reading it backwords.
For you, Flash, the bowling pin is the point. Maybe.
I have no idea what your talking about. . Please enlighten me.
Grisly murder by a psychotic relative is the point ?
What a pinhead.
LOL… He speaks bulgarianese… Bulgarianese is cryptic and wordy for the most part but yes there is a point buried in the message which is oft a tad difficult to decompress.
The point here, as I can see, is that we have the tech to place heli’s on mars, manipulate weather but can’t solve a (perceived) food water problem. No connection to farm land and scumsuck’n gates I’m sure (/s)
Bulgarianese = snarc . Good to know, although vulgarianese would most likely be more accurate.
I have friends that are Bulgarian and one speaks in the same manner which is why I say Bulgarianese… Likes to be cryptic. Very intelligent but often not very smart. Theres no vulgarity in the message but its a game to see if you can decrypt the message. You are deemed to be in the club of understanding if you can…
Check that definition and get back with me.
Definition Of Vulgarity /Define
Something vulgar.
The quality or state of being vulgar.
The quality or state of having or showing poor taste or manners.
Rude or offensive language or behavior.
I see none of that in his messaging. Perhaps ur get’n ur nickers in a knot over nothing… not worth the angst… is it??
vulgar (adj.)
late 14c., “common, ordinary,” from Latin vulgaris, volgaris “of or pertaining to the common people, common, vulgar, low, mean,” from vulgus, volgus “the common people, multitude, crowd, throng,” for which de Vaan offers no further etymology.
The meaning “coarse, low, ill-bred” is recorded by 1640s, probably from earlier use (with reference to people) in the meaning “belonging to the ordinary class” (1520s). Chaucer uses peplish for “vulgar, common, plebeian” (late 14c.). Related: Vulgarly.
Definition of vulgar
1a: lacking in cultivation, perception, or taste : COARSE
c: ostentatious or excessive in expenditure or display : PRETENTIOUS
“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”
― George Carlin
Seriously!?!?! Ur gonna pull a 1520’s term definition just to ‘prove’ you are right??? LOL…
Ok then… I guess the angst is worth it to you… lmao
Does because you are ignorant of the original meaning of a word, dipshit , doesn’t make the use of the word wrong.
If the “point” is lost to 95% of the readers, then the only reason to post it is to impress themselves with their intellect.
I thought the same thing the other day, Flash.
It must be an AI bot that is just stringing shit together.
If it’s a person, the connections being made represent, in Kunstler’s words, some sort of “mindfuckery”.
What on earth would make a real person think that “cutesy” writing style has any value or merit – even “on the internet”?
Someone that is “operating at a higher level than most” has no need to use cryptic writing that jumps points all over the place.
There are writers here, on TBP, that prove this every day.
Flash, Stucky, HSF, Mr. Liberty, and many others know how to accurately convey thoughts to others via selection of the “right” words. All have different styles, but all convey points accurately – without using subjective, song-lyric-type, writing that can mean anything to anyone on any given day.
Try it, I Forget, if you’re not a bot…more people will read what you write.
Until then, many will ignore you because your writing style IS “gibberish”, just like Flash said. You have points in there, but the cryptic tap-dance around them looks like “insanity at a higher level”.
Chris Langan operates on a higher level. I retard just strings gibberish together in the hope that some fellow retard will think it profound, because deep meaning or some other silly shit.
https://gab.com/ChrisLangan
I hope you didn’t just call me a retard. I know it can be frustrating when you don’t understand something. No need to lash out just because it’s beyond your ability to comprehend.
I’m just writing on a ‘higher level’ waayyyy above your comprehension level.
Don’t flatter yourself.
I have a feeling he writes for his own enjoyment. It’s a form of art. He doesn’t give a damn what anyone thinks.
If you don’t understand it, just ask. He’ll break it down to your level.
Apparently you don’t read well, either.

That comment was for Jumpers & Gumpers.
And…it’s you’re, not your.
Oh, wow, so strong & masculine. 🙄 How’s your little meme war going??
Which one?
Your feeling is far brighter than flashbulb’s synapse. Since, as far as I can tell, that’s not saying much, or enough, try this on for size…from here seems like it might fit:
All the reasonings of men are not worth one sentiment of women. ~ Voltaire, sounding a bit like Mencken
J&G … do you think those that trained you to keep it within the lines did it for your benefit, or theirs? And do those trainers confine themselves within the lines they’ve set out for you?
Abigail is right about my motives. I do write to please myself. If that gins up extra conversation now & then ~ or laughs, like today ~ that’s good too, but it’s not the point. The audience that matters is in the mirror. If another audience coalesces now & then, & maybe a jam session ensues, cool – but not the point. It’s exercise, it’s practice, & no more self-indulgent than pressing a barbell or the frets on a guitar (& yes, it is a lot like music, like singing, the interpretation possibilities never seem to reach an end, & that’s good – I never get bored).
What is self-indulgent, & what makes me think of affirmative auctioneers demanding “rights,” is the assertion that I somehow owe it to an audience to use the “right” words – like “so & so” does.
Sure I was trained. Same as everybody. Public “school.” But the point of training wheels is to take them off the bike. The trainers neglect to mention this, for some reason. Now you know.
Abs is right too when she says if you want clarification, just ask. If I think the request is sincere, I’ll sing it more stock.
Cryptic – over-interpreted for your sensibilities ~ content aside tho, the practicality of exercising your asymmetry muscles is that that is what you’re actually dealing with in this fight that gets hashed here every day. These blackhats are not between the lines. There are no rules, there’s just swallowed & rusted nuts training wheels.
“We got the farmer Bill/ks buying up cropland (& taking breadbaskets here & there down) & acquifers … AI-AI-O(h no, Mr. Billlllll…..), old MacDonald had a Pharm.”
That’s a classic. If I knew needling work, I’d have it framed and Hanging from The Wall.
Thinning the human herd will have dire consequences for the animal kingdom too.

As I’ve said countless times, much to chagrin of diversity be our strength fags.
Tribe up or die.

The US Government is doing everything it can to assist Judeo-Bolsheviks in their goal of the complete annihilation of White Christian states around the world. Make no mistake, leftist agitators in the United States are directed by the Government against you. This is why they seek to disarm you. This is why they seek to erode your purchasing power. This is why they are working directly against you in every single decision they make. If they win, they will do everything to make your families look like the Romanovs and probably worse.
The only thing standing between them and you will be the alliances you forge among likeminded men and women. Know your tribe. Soon they will be critical to your survival.
Comment from the Padraig post….
@PadraigMartin if the last three years have taught me anything with a certainty it’s this: there is NOTHING the American people like more than the taste of sand.
The diversity of tribes will always be with ye. Same as the poor.
So that definition of insanity continues to, well, define.
Just keep doing what you’ve always done. That Lotto number’s gotta’ hit eventually.
Oh, I get it. You mean “insulate up.” Being one ungulate amongst many is safety.
It’s not ? Then what is, gibberish toad?
Competence, maybe? Multiple competences?
At most special, small, teams. Not infantry.
Gran Turismo (not “gibberish toad”).
I think i retard ’bout covers it.
“We must all hangulate together, or most assuredly we will all hangulate separately.” ~ Ben Franklin, official counterfeiter -paperhangulator ~ for the state of PA
You have a lisp too, no doubt.
Why don’t you just say ” We’re all the same ” and ” race is just a social construct” and be done with it, instead of hiding your virtue behind nonsensical spew.
I’d never say that.
Because, you never say anything other than gibberish.
A few weeks ago they started with this “Christian Nationalist” bullshit. This tells me they are more concerned with those of like mind than those of same appearance. I’m happy to make a stand with my own tribe, but I will also make a stand with any collection of people committed to the same beliefs in the Almighty and his inspired word which for me includes our founding documents. They can attack the Black, Brown and Yellow MAGA’s by calling them Christian Nationalists instead of racial insinuation which would dump too much ofs their remaining minority support into Independent or MAGA.
You forget the Christian LGTBs , bruh. We’re all in this together…reeeee
What the hell is a “Christian Nationalist”?
I could look it up, but I don’t feel like it. So, unless you, or someone, chimes in I will never know.
On the surface it sounds kind of retarded.
It’s been a thing for awhile… get on GAB , you see moar!
Vox Day – What is Christian Nationalism?
Thanks, flash.

2050? I’ll be pleased if we make it to 2030.
A new study by the University of Colorado Boulder published on “One Earth” cites WHITE SUPREMACY as the top threat to food security in the next 20 years.
FIFY
Yes solar min/max effects the rock we live on, always has always will. Egypt, Tunisia, northern Africa used to be lush green and today its desert. In a dynamic system things change, its a no brainer.
What has changed??? The politicization of climate change/global warming/cooling whatever. The zombies are easily controlled by fear of everything(s). Politicals and ‘experts’ know that they can milk the citizenry of their wealth using the “we’re all gonna die unless you give me your money and buy my message/product”.
Twenty years ago, canukistan alone, had the capacity to feed every man woman and child on the planet. EVERY continent has areas that are rich in agriculture large enough to feed everyone on that continent. So if there is MORE than enough farmland to feed everyone then wheres the problems???
Answer: The corrupt to the core politican asswipes, full stop.
Before the wheat board was dismantled farmers had to grow what the wheatboard deemed and farmers were not allowed to sell to anyone but the wheatboard. Today, farmers grow either the gmo crap or cash crops like bird seed, peas. oil seed etc etc. Food sent to help other nations usually doesn’t make it, or very little does, its intercepted by thugs and sold on the black market.
Everywhere there is a major problem, there you will find more corrupt politicals than you can count. IMO… when the economy crashes, food becomes scarce, bill scum suck’n gates and the chinese buy’n up farmland will donate that farmland to the PEOPLE whether they want to or not.
There is no water shortage. There is a population problem. If you keep building homes, the amount of water being used increases. There are too many fucking people on the planet. That is the problem.
Locusts are gonna locust.
A ‘water scarcity’ is easily solved – just change the definition of ‘water’. And ‘scarcity’ while you’re at it.
Job done.
Next..
