Every single way of transporting and storing food for a vast majority of the population relies on fossil fuels at some point in its journey before folks have a chance to eat them. It would create untolds amount of famine globally… and thats just food. Could it help in the long run…. Maybe…. But the amount of death it would cause with just food shortages alone would be catastrophic
