    Oh definitely, I think the estimates are a few hundred million dying directly and then almost everyone succumbing to starvation a year or two later

    Only a handful of countries in the southern hemisphere would have the current agricultural capacity to maintain their existing population (capability being a critical unknown factor)

    Everyone else could probably survive on mushrooms and a couple other things, and it would be possible to support a small population with greenhouses and LED grow lights if you had electricity
