There is absolutely overwhelming evidence that climate change is impacting agriculture.

You're dodging my question. I asked why hasn't our economic sacrifice to save the environment resulted in a reduction in grocery prices, if environmental damage is what's causing them to go up? We reduced the economic damage but prices are still going up. So what gives? Is it environmentalism or corporate greed?

Has CO2 returned to pre-industrial levels? Has the ice shelf re-frozen? How about permafrost?

We are not yet at the point where things are good again yet. We are just reducing further damage at this point.

Because there are lags in the system? Because we are not doing enough? Do you always expect immediate feedback on everything you do? If that's the case I guess you never invest in anything because that's by definition a bet that it will make things better (or less worse) in the future.

So your proposal is to further delay making anyone pay for changes, because previous generations profited? So at the end of the chain (which will likely not be very long anymore) some generation will be completely screwed.
