The big item I don't hear too many folks talking about is the nitrogen-based fertilizers we obtain from natural gas. That's an issue at the center of the Russian invasion of the Ukraine. Russia's halting of natural gas shipments to the West doesn't just affect heating homes, it affects fertilizers as well. Soaring fertilizer prices are playing a part in our soaring food prices.
The interesting question is do we have to be carbon-neutral to avert the largest calamities due to anthropogenic climate change? Can we continue using natural gas to produce fertilizer? Are some crops more fertilizer-intensive than others?
