MIT Meteorologist Links Ice Ages to Future World Food Supplies
MIT professor Reginald E. Newell argues that understanding ice ages could let scientists forecast climate-driven food shortages. He cites 1971 72 Soviet grain shifts, Peru fish meal declines, and the Sahel drought as examples, and notes long range predictions may take decades. He warns the next ice age could begin before 30 000 A.D. and surpass the 1973 74 crisis.
