For instance, here in Kansas, a lot of the environmentalist types have been trying to ban control burning for years. They claim it creates significant amounts of pollution, that it "destroys nature", and that it harms wildlife.

This is devastatingly stupid and they should be classified as terrorists for trying to cause widespread fires.

Additionally, they also pitch a fit over cattle grazing in this region. This despite the fact that cattle are the only reason the prairie still exist

Correct. Literally the purpose of the prarie.

But no, some central bureaucrat talked with a scientist

This is where my objections come in. Any good scientist should be stating this. Horticulture and Agricultural management is a major aspect of how to deal with climate change.

Because speaking around here, the only shortages that have been noticed due to the supply line issues has been luxury items like electronics.

The danger in those areas is not that you'll starve, just that if the biome changes enough from the climate, some crops will no longer be profitable, and you might even have problems with soil nutrients, and you can't just dump and infinite number of fertilizers into land that's been over-farmed or over-grazed. If you genuinely change the rainfall patterns and growing seasons, a lot of shit starts to have a knock-on effect that could be really disruptive.
