Your, and much more those who push the agenda at a higher level, hysteria about CO2 which is harming nobody is the cause under which this policy opperates. To that degree you are responsible for your activism.
Your refusal to consider the number of deaths this use of food as fuel causes mearly makes it obvious the denial you are in.
I have not refused to consider the number. In fact, the opposite is provably true: I have repeatedly considered the figure of 20per million per year and rejected it based on the evidence. Evidence I have shown you repeatedly.
No, let's not "say" anything. Let's prove it.800 million people in some sort of clinical undernourishment. Say 40 year average life expectancy if they are very lucky. If this increase of 30% to 70% in the price of basic food stuff reduces that life expectancy by 1 year that is a 2.5% loss. That is 20 million per year.
You're making up a short life expectancy and then attributing the entirety of that life expectancy to malnourishment. You're literally suggesting nobody ever dies of any other cause.
You're also entirely inventing the idea that this extremely wide range of price increases will cause an arbitrary 1 year decrease in life expectancy. All of this is just pulled straight out of your ass.
You also refuse to ignore a glaring fact: malnourishment-related deaths have declined while biofuel usage increased dramatically.
Is it really so much to ask that you go with numbers provided by people who are experts in the subject? Are you really suggesting that you're the first person to ever consider the idea that malnourishment reduces life expectancy in ways other than death-by-starvation? Or maybe you think some experts in the field have made better-informed estimates of that number? Is that a possibility to you?
Your deliberate clouding of the issue with extremist rhetoric is responsible for many deaths, because of the apathy you have inspired.
