Yes. It doesn’t fit our narrative so it must be false.

It’s unclear what proportion ethanol subsidies played in food price spikes at that time. For instance, no subsidies exist now but a widespread price increase has occurred recently (housing, gas,food etc).Climate change making food production harder surely will increase insecurity

Well, yes, policies like ethanol subsidies sold under the guise of "climate change" would be more damaging than anything that might actually qualify as climate change, for which there's really very little evidence.

Dr. Peterson, is it possible the past 10 years of disasters, Fukushima, the fires across the globe, the oil spills etc., helped climate change shift more than expected?

Incorrect? No. Unsubstantiated? Yes. At least as long as I haven't seen the study in question. It's very easy to make a study claiming pretty much anything.

I find the best way to get factual input is to reach out to your Twitter followers rather than looking into the studies yourself.

A significant portion of corn grown here in the area goes / went to ethanol plants in Great Bend / Garden City. Like half/half demand for the area. Though I'm a few years off the farm. Not sure what current situation and proration of actual subsidies or indirect subsidies are.
