The world is getting warmer, that is scientific fact.
So you are saying that more land may be freed up for crop planting and there will be more liquid water?

How do you figure?

If the earth is warmer, I'd suspect that there would be more time throughout the year for crop planting, and land that was previously too cold for crops would become warm enough. Since the ice caps are melting and the poor polar bears are drowning (they can swim by the way) there would be more usable water.

There will be more desert. You try coming over to Australia and telling me that the warm middle is good for growing food.

There won't be more usable water, there will be more ocean. More ocean = higher water levels = countless major cities having to evacuate further inland.

Is there anything in my previous post that even remotely implies that I'm saying this?

If warmer = desert = less water, then colder = ?

Actually, warmer generally means more water, and also more desert. Let's see if you can figure this one out.

Since you are so smart and scientific, why don't you explain how it works. What happens to all that water that evaporated? Does it stay up in the sky? With warmer temps and a greater surface area of water what do you think is going to happen? Lots of droughts or lots of rain?

Lots of storms. Places already affected by drought, which are usually a distance away from the ocean, will become warmer and drier, and increase in size. A lot more water will evaporate from the ocean surface, and combined with the heat you'll see an increase in tropical storms, which will pound the crap out of anywhere near the water. They don't usually stray far from the water.

How does all that water manage to avoid the center of land?

By being dumped into the ocean.

Whenever there is a hurricane that hits the east coast, we in the Midwest always get the leftovers. So you must be somehow mistaken.
I'm bored. I think I'm gonna go have a shower.

OK, I concede: YouTube and that Alex Jones idiot. Wow, I'm impressed.
Alex Jones isn't an idiot. He's making good money on what he does. ;)

Youtube says otherwise. Facts, do not.
So you are saying their is a big conspiracy orchestrated by youtube to mislead millions of people away from the wonderful people at monsanto who are saving the planet with their pesticides and GM crops into the arms of the evil organic food devils?
No, I am saying that sad and lonely people create youtube videos as a way to deal with the randomness of life.

Its too much work to maintain several conversations at once with someone who is going to disagree with me no matter what I say about anything. Besides, I have more entertaining things to do.
And yet, you post a ton of crap, but don't reply to my main point, my main reply.

Every video a link to is sold as a real factual documentary. Its kind of a copyright issue for them to be on youtube, but that doesn't make the documentary any less valid.

I'd suspect they would be buying up whatever land they could get so they could grow their own food.

As usual, you imagine an infinite amount of resources.

Oh, if you accept a huge drop in lifestyle and an increased mortality rate, lots of people have survived in the desert. Too bad we don't know how. And too bad that it requires huge amounts of desert per person.
