Why do they never gather in someplace like Newark, NJ or St. Mary’s, Florida? Someplace basic? It’s always at a nice resort town
From the screed
Experts are meeting in Rome this week to discuss the latest science and evidence on the impacts, adaptation, and solution pathways of climate change on agriculture and food systems. Hosted at the headquarters of the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO), the meeting is a co-sponsored undertaking by FAO and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). It will be held from 2 to 5 June 2026.
This Expert Meeting will bring together more than 80 leading scientists, researchers, and practitioners with expertise across food systems domains, from crop production to livestock and fisheries production, to land and water dynamics, climate-resilient value chains and agricultural policy.
It will cover emerging and future risks and impacts across different food and agricultural commodity chains, adaptation-mitigation synergies in agrifood systems solutions, and the social and policy pathways for implementing good practices.
So all these “leading scientists”, who most likely have never ever worked growing food, worked with livestock or fisheries, are going to take long, fossil fueled trips for a few days in Rome, along with a lot of bureaucrats and UN flunkies to attempt to control the agriculture industry? F off.
Seriously, they couldn’t do a Zoom?
Because Zoom doesn't include prime rib dinners, 5 ? accommodations, & taxpayer-funded prostitutes.
DUH! ???????
