Overproduction is based on assumptions around how variable farm output is. Climate change increases variability.

Climate change isn't the weather.

Climate is the average.

We are in a global warming emergency and no one is doing enough about it.

Climate isn’t the average weather it’s the expected weather. X hurricanes every Y years for example doesn’t change the average significantly, but their a major climate concern in areas at risk from them.

Climate change is literally the weather.

Long term average weather. But yes, IIRC, climate change is causing more extreme variability, and that variability itself is a problem.

Though I do disagree with @airhead969, as the literally exponential growth of PV by itself looks to me to be enough to make us net zero in a decade or two (probably two, given exponentials are often sigmoids in disguise).
