Abstract

Globally, temperatures are rising, glaciers are melting, and sea levels are rising. All of the events will consequentially affect the reliability of global food production among other problems. However, some politicians, executives, and citizens still act surprised at these changing events and continue to emphasize the uncertainty of certain scientific hypotheses and information.
