No, greedy people taking advantage of an “excuse” to raise prices it why food is going up.

Yeah and this is how bad it is with the barest hint of an excuse.

What will happen when previously arable land becomes too hot to grow crops and decreases yields, leading to real food shortages?

I wish this would be getting a bigger platform, I honestly think a lot of people don't get this. Or don't want to get it.
Where I live rising grocery prices are justified with war in Ukraine or general Inflation, no mentions of climate change. But this could really emphasize the urgentness.

Don't worry. In the next 5-10 years crop yields will start to collapse, and double digit inflation will become the norm 👍

Yup. But let's keep growing the world population while we're at it.

silence7 OP Mod ,

Population is likely to peak within a few decades, and is already declining in the EU, China, and US. The issue here is that we are going to have a choice between lots of beef for the rich, and feeding everybody.
