    With the insane rate of increases in food prices lately, not just caused by this war, but also through cascading climate events, it was already very likely that there will be famine in at least some parts of the world. This only further exacerbates what is already a fragile situation globally. We may very well see significant global unrest and possible regime changes across the globe.

      There already is famine in many parts of the world. Currently over 10% of all humans live in hunger.

        From what I can find, the only current famines are in Madagascar and Ethiopia. Hunger is different from famine. Hunger caused by greed, not lack of food, does not qualify.
