Despite months of enormous and widespread protests from Dutch farmers, the Dutch government will be confiscating 3,000 farms and closing them down in the interests of complying with EU environmental rules to decrease nitrogen emissions by 50% by 2030.
Of course, this means 3,000 farms' worth of food production will be eliminated. The Netherlands is the world's second-largest exporter of agricultural products and provides vegetables for much of Western Europe. Over half of Dutch land is used for agriculture, and that doesn't count 24,000 acres' worth of crops growing in greenhouses. What does the Dutch government think will happen to the price and availability of food after their "green" agenda is accomplished? What could possibly go wrong with their plans?
Next, Germany, at the behest of the EU's green agenda, has banned farmers in one of its federal states from properly fertilizing large swathes of land. The farmers are furious; they know what will happen to yields if they reduce nitrogen fertilizer. But who cares what a bunch of peasants are bleating about?
Now Canada is doing the same thing, with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pushing for a fertilizer reduction in the name of "climate change." Let's get rid of food. What could possibly go wrong?
Sri Lanka, of course, has been the poster-child for government interference in farming. In this island nation, the government banned synthetic fertilizers and forcibly ordered the entire country to switch to organic fertilizers instead. As a result, harvests nosedived and starvation is a very real possibility. But who cares? They're just peasants…

Let us not forget that Bush the Lesser led the way by converting corn to fuel.
‘it’s the result of worshipping ourselves and the earth rather than our Creator.’
since when has the nebulous concept of ‘worship’ ever entered into the issue of producing sufficient food resources...?
Hmmm. I thought we were all supposed to be happy, even though we own nothing. I don’t think I would be very happy with any of those situations. 😆🤪🤗😀😁😩
It’s the drinking water that is affecting them.
This is what we voted for? Why they were elected? For them to govern (rule) us?
That’s cuz they got no guns.

And it's being brought to us by the same "depopulationist" global elites who brought us Covid 19 and the death jab.
It will be introduced in cities in Florida, Texas, Tennessee, and fly-over red states. Sort of like human insecticide.
I hope that the Europeans will find their bureaucrats and environmentilists very tasty.
Amen 🙏🏻!!!!
We do and yet dutifully rolled up our sleeves and wore slave masks.
70%.
It will happen here.
I know. I fear it.
Before the Nicaragua Sandinista Commies took power, Nicaragua had a thriving farmer market all over Nicaragua. Every week, in small towns and large cities, farmers brought their products to sell and barter.
The day after the commies took power, no farmer markets. All food became the people’s food, and rationing was instituted. DemocRATS love how commies control the masses.
bttt
Beethoven fan, well said.
2 Chronicles 7:14
if my people, who are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
>>Let’s get rid of food<<
There is already a trend to do so.
Pay attention to the constant bombardment of the “fruit and veggies” commercial of dried and ground encapsulated food products. A number of companies are already producing dried food with the advice that we can eat these for the rest of our lives. No mention is made of animal-based products.
Demon-driven. All of it.
Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose. When that happens, THEN the proper response will occur.
