This article says that the price of beer will go up as a result of climate change. While it is true that we are screwing our environment, there are many other factors. One is that the changing of crops to other uses (ethanol which is causing the US to have a tough time since we refuse to use something better than corn). What's that? Ohh, we're all dead in 2012 anyway, right?

The price of beer is likely to rise in coming decades because climate change will hamper the production of a key grain needed for the brew - especially in Australia, a scientist warned Tuesday. Jim Salinger, a climate scientist at New Zealand's National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research, said climate change likely will cause a decline in the production of malting barley in parts of New Zealand and Australia. Malting barley is a key ingredient of beer.
