Peut-on utiliser des pesticides ? Et si non, acceptons-nous le hasard des récoltes et des #famines afférentes ?
Et surtout LA grande question #vegan et #anarchiste... ...
Comment fait-on pour imposer le véganisme et arrêter le massacre tout en s'assurant du respect de l'interdit ?
In conversation with @democracynow.org, Alex de Waal explores the #famines in #Gaza and #Sudan — crises fueled by siege, obstruction, and the deliberate denial of aid. Famine doesn’t just happen. It is politically caused, sustained, and can be stopped

#Famines happen quick when farming is disrupted by #dictators.
#Tariffs are driving #bankruptcies and ghouls like the #Thiel #Vance #gang are snapping the farms up cheap on #AcreTrader.
They don’t care if we all starve.
Protecting #family #farmers protects everyone.

The erasure of #famines & the dehumanization of their victims are trademarks of famine denialism—both currently & historically. Executive Director Alex de Waal spoke on this in his keynote address for @peninternational.bsky.social

Stealing #familyfarms is a #crime of biblical proportions.
#JDVance and his #PeterThiel gang of #greedy #unethical #private #equity #investors are leveraging #tariff #tyrrany to #bankrupt #farmers and turn every #American farm #corporate.
#Dictators create #famines.
#AcreTrader
#Sharecropping
Give #farmers whatever they need whenever they need it because farmers FEED us!
#Famines happen quickly when an agricultural system collapses.
Don’t think for a minute that you and your family will not go hungry when it hits.
Dictators are famous for creating man-made famines and millions starve.
Goodness. Increasingly #famines everywhere are now man made through lack of #ClimateActionNow. Nation states (governments) are already declared liable by UN. ICC has declared the #Israeli invasion and decimation a #genocide.

The increase in the number of #famines is occurring despite an overall increase in global #foodsecurity & #nutrition indicators. This tells us that the global food security is more volatile & unequal.
Executive Director Alex de Waal exploress why & how this is possible here: shorturl.at/8hPoP
Figure 1: Global risk of death from famine by decade: 1870–2010. The figure shows that since the 1970s the risk of death from famine has decreased considerably, as measured by the ratio of global famine deaths to world population.
The persistence of #famines is attributable to mismanagement of triggers of human vulnerability: Extreme #poverty, violent #conflicts, economic shocks, #climatechange, governmental negligence, famine crimes & #pandemics require a comprehensive development strategy: doi.org/10.1111/joes...
📣 Media Round-Up: Alex de Waal on Gaza’s Man-Made Famine
This week, famine expert and Executive Director Alex de Waal was featured across major outlets, warning that #Gaza is facing one of the most politically deliberate and devastating #famines since WWII. Key coverage includes:
#BBC #R4Today
“Students must be prepared to be shocked”, says the government, in an attempt to #appease the #FarRight
Does this mean teaching Britain’s #slave trade, #Churchill’s #treachery, the truth of the #Irish and #Bengal #famines, and #Israel’s #genocide in #Palestine?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😬
It’s an intuitively obvious link: world food crises cause #famines. But, if you look closer, it’s not so clear.

#Famines are complicated, and their causes can be obscure. Each famine is a destructive and complex crisis, driven by one or more crises. To better understand the drivers and triggers of famines, we examined our dataset of 83 major famines spanning 1870 to 2022.

Modern #famines are always #political. With mass #starvation on the rise once again—Gaza, Sudan, Ethiopia—this is more than an academic concern.

If we want to prevent or relieve #famines we need #data. We need to know where and when they strike and why. For that reason WPF has developed a dataset of historic and contemporary famines.
