Our culture, and the sources of our food, are all tuned to the climate

We're on track to do that to our main food-growing areas in the
next 100 years.

Thank you for reminding us of the facts.
A typographical error in the pages of the Washington Post does not
change those facts in any way.
I mean, what if some computer hacker caused the Washington Post
to run a story on its front page saying the Earth was flat? Would
that prove the round Earth was a hoax? Obviously not.
