The polycule is even better when it's a polycultural polycule tbh

Woohoo wet bulb temps in a heat dome thanks to modern agriculture, looking forward to an eventual news story about thousands dying from heatstroke in the midwest!

[–] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 25 points 2 months ago (2 children)

If I understand US news correctly(as a non-American), they will blame it on immigrants/too much government regulation.

Thousands die of heat stroke in mid day, because of woke

As is tradition

And I'm guessing like 90% the corn is food for livestock.

[–] Posadas@hexbear.net 36 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Probably 40/40 between livestock and fuel

[–] peeonyou@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago

and 40 for doritos

Oh neat we get to have Dustbowl II to go with the rest of our interwar period, just like last time! ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

[–] Bloobish@hexbear.net 29 points 2 months ago

Well first heat dome that kills thousands then Dust bowl after all the cornfields go fallow and turn to dust

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 25 points 2 months ago

This won't be a dust bowl.

This time it'll be a steam bowl with lethal wet bulbs killing all of us outside of air conditioning.

The hottest part of the map in north-central Iowa was once pristine wetlands that had managed to survive destruction by settlers.

Until literal Nazi prisoners of war helped drain what was left during WW2.

How long till we get popcorn from the heat?

corn was a bad dude

[–] KnilAdlez@hexbear.net 15 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Huh. Is this a problem in terms of something we have to change for climate change? Or is it a compounding factor that makes the experience of climate change worse that would be fine in the absence of other things like greenhouse gasses?

[–] SerLava@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

I'm not kidding the corn has been boiling me like a sauna. When I go outside my glasses fog up.

[–] Edamamebean@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago

Wow, really fucked up to dismiss the usefulness of corn. It's also for Doritos and Coca Cola.
