Human-caused climate change sounds like a huge, HUGE hoax to me. I won't deny that increase in co2 is real, but I don't think it is related to increases in global temperature. Nevertheless, I understand that the increase in co2 can change the pants growing patterns

Big ag has successfully breed food to look perfect and for better shipping and for more volume (mass) with more effective fertilization. Necessary to feed the 8 billion ppl of the world. The “greenies” claim that Mother Earth can only sustain at the upper limit 6 billion ppl. If that were the case then they are perhaps looking to cull 2 billion ppl. Let’s hope not, everyone just take multi vitamins please

Yes, I was waiting for this video. There is a nutritional chemist in Germany, Udo Pollmer, who says that things like selenium came from industrial emissions and were cut down when some industrial pollution was reduced. Many new plant varieties were not bred for their nutrient content.

Soil quality is the key. Moist agricultural soils are completely destroyed, devoid of microflora due to overuse of pesticides, herbicides and fungicides and exposure to the sun. Carbon content is low. My tomatoes were sick and had average taste that is until I added worm castings and compost (and urine). This year I've had the tastiest tomatoes I've ever eaten. So rich in flavor it was like tasing a flavor bag from an instant soup. Also you're right about the genetic modifications - plants are bred for size, ease of harvesing and resistance to chemicals. Not for nutrients density.

Acid rain? Micro-plastics? Air pollution? Water pollution? Fungicides? Herbicides? Hybridization does not necessarily create a less nutritional plant. All of our crops have been selectively bred for thousands of years.

The concept of breeding causing nutrient deficiencies is a mixed bag because the opposite is also true 🙃. I was shocked I didn’t see that mentioned anywhere!

I'm for you taking over and correcting Canada government leadership. ( Strictly joking I'm happy with your country and see the way they handle immigrates much better than the USA open borders down south the USA). I'm always hearing that my veggies have such better flavor than any other places veggies maybe because they are free to friends but I'm organic and my family also believe mine are better. . thanks

This is why I've started gardening this last year. I'm very sick, and deficient in a lot of nutrients, particularly iron. When I discovered that the good foods I do eat were as deficient as I am I decided to begin gardening. I knew I felt a lot better during the years my mother grew a lot of our veg and never really figured out why. Now I know. I'm battling my physical health now, but I'm trying hard to educate myself and change the way I'm thinking about what I eat and what I want to grow. And how to make my yard work for me to help that.

Hi my friend ~ Your 5th point (opinion) about the difference in soils equate to varying nutrients absorbed and capable of sustaining life is certainly connected to the bioavailability of microbes and nutrients within the soil…as you rightly pointed out…strengthening your argument even further. This year I was listening to a CBC documentary about how the soil has changed in BC - particularly in the Rainforest on Vancouver Island. According to the UBC leading biologist, who was hired by the Indigenous nations to conduct the study and implementation of sustainable practices discovered that a great number of the plants, and by extension, wildlife, that have existed in the recent past can no longer sustain themselves, and therefore, a host of new plants and animals are taking over. Of course, the reason for this dramatic shift is due to the stresses of climate change and human activity…SURPRISE, SURPRISE! Stay warm and have a great weekend! In case I don’t get an opportunity…I want to wish you, your husband, furbabies and extended families a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR!🎄❤🎄 Cheers!🇨🇦
