“If there’s one thing U.S. farmers can count on, it’s bad weather, and perhaps as a result, many of them don’t think humanity is to blame for the long-term shifts in weather patterns known as climate change. But even though agriculture is a major contributor to global warming, it may not matter whether farmers believe in the environmental problem.”
So, because Mr David Biello says it, “agriculture is a major contributor to global warming” it has to be true, after all, his brother is a farmer. The last part of the quote, “it may not matter whether farmers believe in the environmental problem” is probably much closer to the truth in regards the arrogance of those completely off the reservation measuring stick of reality.
