Thus we see a tremendous increase in the frequency of natural disasters (100 year floods every year, hurricanes of unprecedented size, droughts, etc). We can also observe crop failures which result in food shortages. First world countries are largely insulated from the effects of these food shortages, but the impact is very real on poorer countries. For example, these food shortages are largely responsible for the "Arab Spring." People in the Middle East have lived under the rule of oppressive regimes for decades. It was only as a result of food price spikes that social upheaval was unleashed, followed quickly by the fall of governments all over the region (Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen), as well as the civil war in Syria.
