Once the availability of food declines people will decide to do something about it. The only question is is it then too late? Or is it to late for some and not others?

Things are always done at the last minute... We Humans as a group seam to only respond to people dying in huge numbers.

Just look at all other cases of man made disasters all were known to be around long before it happened and nothing was done to prevent them.
