Tofu Shortage! Oh the humanity!
2004-12-07
A fungal disease of soybeans first reported in Japan in 1902 has spread across the planet and devastated crop yields. The fungus — called soybean rust — reached Africa in 1996 and arrived in South America five years later. In China and other parts of Asia, the disease has reduced soybean yields by up to 80 per cent, and it cost Brazilian farmers US$2 billion last year. In September, hurricanes carried spores of the fungus on to North America.

A severe shortage of tofu will likely result in a drop in the Moonbat population, perhaps making them an endangered species.

It has to be Bush. I understand Volvo production's down, too...
