Additionally, Putin had no control over Justin Trudeau\u2019s decision to limit harvest yields by blocking the use of nitrogen-based fertilizer {<a href=\"https:\/\/www.saskatchewan.ca\/government\/news-and-media\/2022\/july\/22\/governments-of-saskatchewan-and-alberta-disappointed-in-federal-target-for-fertilizer-emissions-redu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>}. More importantly, it was not Vladimir Putin who forced all the western politicians to sign up for a new \u2018climate friendly\u2019 energy program that is destroying the ability of western farms to generate higher yield crops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You do not need to be a farmer to understand that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/cap.unl.edu\/crops\/perfect-storm-fertilizer-markets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">nitrogen\/phosphorus-based industrial fertilizer<\/a>&nbsp;has been the reason why farm yields have generated massive amounts of food on a global basis.&nbsp; The United States, Canada, the U.K. and places like the Netherlands have massively increased their ability to generate food for export, in large part due to the success of improved fertilizer and crop saving modern pesticides.&nbsp; Take those farming advancements away under the guise of climate change and you get Sri Lanka, Pakistan and now the African Continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those western climate and energy policies create downstream consequences.&nbsp; The decision to chase a new global energy policy under the name \u201cBuild Back Better,\u201d in combination with short-sighted EU sanctions against Russia, and you get food shortages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was not Vladimir Putin who told British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and German Chancellor Olaf Scholz their proactive recommendation to switch from crop-based biofuels to human food would be blocked.&nbsp; That G7 decision was made by Justin Trudeau and Joe Biden. {<a href=\"https:\/\/www.msn.com\/en-gb\/news\/world\/joe-biden-to-block-boris-johnson-e2-80-99s-answer-to-global-food-crisis\/ar-AAYTuyB\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">link<\/a>} Even more significantly, it was not Russia who threatened the multinational energy companies about investing in Africa for expanded natural gas supplies for their fertilizer needs.

It is the purposeful action taken under the guise of mitigating climate change that is causing the shortage of food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The collective Build Back Better energy policy of western governments\u2019 is the reason for massive increases in energy costs, massive oil price jumps, gasoline price increases, significant increases in chemical costs, increases in diesel fuel costs, shortages of fertilizer created using natural gas, and the end result is lower crop yields, higher farming costs and eventually, food shortages.&nbsp; They knew this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of the organizations and government who have been decrying the future shortage of food, know it is the radical shift in energy resource development that is creating the crisis.&nbsp; This acceptance of reality begins the framework to understand just how entrenched and committed these western leaders are toward their beloved climate change agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are only just now beginning to see the first aspects of the food shortage.&nbsp; However, once the issue becomes unavoidable the western leaders will not and cannot accept the blame for what they have done.&nbsp; They will blame-cast, excuse and justify what is surfacing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Food shortages will be blamed on the Ukraine conflict, Russian aggression, climate change and any various iteration of justification that does not identify the true cause, their energy ideology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019m not so sure that people fully understand what the entire system of western government would be willing to do to avoid being blamed for avoidable death on a potential scale that is quite alarming.\u00a0 All of the western leaders, institutions and governments are on the same boat.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>They are
