Émissions de CO2 : L’effondrement nutritionnel – l’humanité pourrait ne pas pouvoir se nourrir au cours de la prochaine décennie

L’accroissement du CO2 atmosphérique provenant des sources de combustion affecte non seulement le climat, mais également la capacité des plantes et l’alimentation des insectes polinisateurs en produisant de de la nourriture appauvrie en nutriments pour l’espèce humaine.
