This is a crisis the West doesn't want discussed. I've been reading alternate news sources documenting rice shortages throughout the third world. They are being caused by climate change.

We Americans love to worry, don't we. Day after day worrying about food, fuel, gas, water, weather, climate, health-care, too fat, drug companies, even century old conspiracies to enslave us.
