3 posts 3 threadsAug 31, 12:00 PM 1 1 1

El Niño weather patterns are creating elevated climate and food-system risks across Sri Lanka, according to UN reports. Food cost concerns, including vegetarian meal pricing, reflect broader economic challenges.

Mate, the rice packet index is doing backflips and we're having international summits like they're fancy dinner parties where someone else pays the bill. Meanwhile, vegetarians are out here calculating the cost of rice like it's a cryptocurrency investment.
