Iranian law stipulates that 85 percent of domestic food be produced locally, Morad Kaviani, professor of geography and hydropolitics at Iran’s Kharazmi University, told state television last week.
However, he added, Iran does not have the water and soil capacities, and nearly 30 percent of agricultural produce is wasted due to a lack of infrastructure, outdated irrigation practices and misguided crop selection.
Sounds like one of the biggest root disasters, eh?
So, this situation may only slightly be related to AGCC, but it does seem ominous in painting a certain picture of the future. I wonder if and when Russia and China step in, here…
Er, well… it’s now year 2025, AGCC has been scientifically documented and publicly talked about for decades, and is now arguably the biggest existential threat to humanity?
You know… as seen in increasingly dangerous storm systems year after year, rising global temps year after year, more wildfires, more droughts, rising ocean acidification, rising difficulty growing crops, the holocene extinction accelerating… things like that? All are directly impacted by AGCC, to name a few.
Getting harder and harder to live under a rock, tell you hwat.
I’m not questioning how real anthropogenic global climate change is. I’m questioning your decision of using just the initials assuming everyone understand automatically.
When I googled “AGCC meaning” the suggestions were:
AGenesis of the Corpus Callosum
Alderney Gambling Control Commission
Arab Gulf Cooperation Council
Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce
Action for a Global Climate Community
Agencia Comercial Spirits ltd (AGCC)
I didn’t assume. People are going to understand and misunderstand terms no matter what acronym or definition is used, like CC or GCC. Or they’ll deny, get it twisted, whatever. Or ask a curious followup, as you did.
When I googled “AGCC meaning” the suggestions were:
Well, context is king. If you asked what it meant within that sentence, then it might be able to narrow things down better. We all do this all the time, of course.

What is an AGCC?
Anthropomorphic, global climate change.
Holy shit, what made you think anyone will understand that abbreviation?
Er, well… it’s now year 2025, AGCC has been scientifically documented and publicly talked about for decades, and is now arguably the biggest existential threat to humanity?

To avoid misunderstandings wouldn’t be better to use the actual words instead of acronyms?
