For the first time since anyone can remember, there is a very real possibility of 4 famines breaking out at once

Almost incomprehendable.

I was watching a guy on Rogan's podcast last week, who spends most of his time between fights out in the Congo building water wells. Was really quite harrowing listening.

When I see things like this it just further fuels my annoyance at space exploration and spending countless millions looking for evidence that there may or may not have been water on Mars billions of years ago. Who gives a fuck!! Go find some water for these poor bastards!!
