then they will have to cut domestic water consumption


Don't forget vegetables.. but it's all worth it.. even the heart disease, etc.
And what about remaining native flora and fauna.. Who cares, eh, jim.


exactly


Really? What an insane attitude. Luckily, jim's kind are in the minority.
Most people are misinformed + addicted to fat (in this case animal fat).

so they are going to have to cut domestic water consumption, because
there is enough water falling for agriculture, whatever sort of agriculture
you want.


Yes, you just said that. The question is, *why* is this happening?

yep, and large areas in the UK, because that is where we produce our
livestock here, is permanent pasture because it is unsuitable for
arable
cultivation

Arable land is, but a significant percentage is being used for
feedcrops.

in the UK a lot of arable land is incapable of growing bread making wheat
and can only grow feed wheat, but as global warming increases we'll
probably
be able to grow bread making wheat


'WHETHER you're an avid baker or know next to nothing about
making bread, visiting the Watermill in Little Salkeld, Cumbria,
will make you want to get stuck in.
..


yep, as I said, we grow very little breadmaking wheat in the UK.


You say a lot of things. You are a veritable fount of BS, jim.

That is why we import bread making wheat, because we don't have the sunshine
that we need to guarantee production


- BS. 'Only' 39% of British wheat is used as livestock feed.

I'm glad you've noticed OSR,


What's that?

you'll see a lot more of it when the EU turns
over 50% of our arable acreage for biodiesel

& appearing to be highly controversial in relevant circles.

But you still haven't said where your food comes from I note
