In the short term things appear to be getting worse as far as food security, but if you take the long view maybe there is some hope. Whether these dock strikes and supply chain issues are random or maybe intended somehow (to speed up our demise) I don't know but it doesn't seem to matter too much. The old paradigm of Big Agra, Big Tech, Big Money growing unobstructed is now being questioned in many circles. It's become too big, too greedy and too fragile now. The system is based on destructive and disruptive mass farming practices that are unsustainable. It's morally bereft; trading short term profits for future sickness and demise. We now live in a time where we need to pull back from modern conveniences; instant food and gratification, and take responsibility for our own health. Once you realize you can't trust doctors, regulatory agencies, governments, media and so on, it's very discouraging to say the least. The food, the land, the air and water are being poisoned so do we really need to save this system of mass production? Ironically small organic and regenerative farms would help solve the climate crisis and the health crisis.

The duck and goose hunting in Georgia is going to be something else with all these flooded fields. Upside to everything!
