Upgrade by Blake Crouch is a fiction book that uses gene altering pesticides as a culprit for a global food shortage that triggers a massive famine(don’t worry, that isn’t really a spoiler).
It’s interesting to read fiction and then read headlines like this!
- hedora 3y agoThis article also reminds me of "The Sheep Look Up" by John Brunner (1972). The author is from the UK, but it's mostly set in the US. It contains a brilliant parody of Trader Joes / Whole Foods (from well before they were founded, of course). Apparently, he wrote a series of dystopias. I've been meaning to read the other ones.
