Long pig - Yum!

Ted Turner predicts we'll be eating each other in a few years.

Failure to address global warming will have us all dead or eating each other by mid-century.

So says Ted Turner, the restaurateur, environmentalist and former media mogul whose controversial comments have earned him the nickname "Mouth of the South."

Unfortunately, science is not on his side.
So far as food production is concerned, it is not clear why a warmer climate would be a problem at all. Even the IPCC concedes that for a warming of anything up to 3 per cent, "globally, the potential for food production is projected to increase". Yes: increase.
Awwwwww.. I guess that means long pig won't be on the menu any time soon. Too bad. I was thinking of befriending a few vegetarians myself. I heard theyre more tasty.
