It's seams painfully ironic that the people who have contributed the least to global warming will be the first to suffer.
now that belt if extended to the right seems to me to encompass the greatest oil producers doesnt it?
for india they wont get much in the belt, those that are in just have to make more dams and use hydroponics and ****ing forget about making so many golf courses... oh they dont have the money to use the tech... dang i forgot we (europeans and americans) are drowning them in subsidiced export food cheaper than they can produce yet as we displace their industry and make anything but fair trade with them they still dont have the money to afford it anyways! oooh what a pity... lets sell some weapons to them so they can kill each other about diamonds or whatever they have there... thats humanitarian indeed well help world hunger and make money at the same time...
