Which would reduce the human population. How progressive.
Let’s all starve to death! Woo hoo!
And watch your food costs quadruple.
Please do it. Then we can find out how beneficial it was.
So....Oxen and hand tools?
This time it will work!!
There are problems with industrial farms for sure.
But it’s allowing an Earth with 7 billion people
to keep feeding itself.
Green party supports mass starvation.
we can eat soylent green instead of pork
My 21yo au pair is from Germany. She thinks literally every weather event is evidence of global warming and is incredulous that anyone doesn’t believe in her weird weather religion.
She also loves McDonalds hamburgers (it’s her favorite restaurant), enjoys our cheap gas prices and her favorite American car is the Chevy Suburban. She says it is considered a luxury vehicle in Germany because you have to be loaded to afford to drive one around.
I wish I was making this all up.
These people are nuts. There are like 2 billion starving humans on earth and they want to make food more scarce and more expensive. I can’t even say that this would make them ‘feel better’ if they had any real thought they would realize how many will be harmed by such inane policy.
Reminds me of this plastic straw ban for some reason. I fail to see how a plastic straw is worse for the environment than a paper straw - how much energy and other environmental damage is used to make a paper straw? Cutting trees, milling the wood, bleaching the wood, turning it to paper, rolling it and gluing it and then wrapping it in a plastic (or paper again) is a net environmental positive? Why not just hard plastic reusable straws, like the dishware and utensils used in restaurants? They can be washed and disinfected - but they are banned.
And how many of these green people love Starbucks? Starbuck’s entire business model is based on massive amounts of trash. No plastic straws but billions of plastic cups, plastic lids, plastic bags full of beans, even plastic CDs of music. I bet Starbucks is responsible for entire landfills at this point but how much trash do these “green” people create just by their patronage of Starbucks? I for one never go there.
Sorry, I’m ranting...
Mass starvation to save the planet. And blame the farmers.
Sure. I’ve got an extra 40 hours every week available to manage my little backyard garden and a few head of livestock. No problem. Happy to oblige to save the earth.
“reports demonstrated that livestock emissions are more dangerous for the environment than automobiles...”
But but but “Scientists have discovered the smell of flatulence can stave off cancer, strokes, heart attacks and dementia..”
Breathing cow farts is good for my health.
This will lead to Genocide.
The world has been steadily cooling for the last 9 thousand years. The recent heating is just a minor wandering of the temperatures over the steady decline.
With no coal nor oil nor nuclear power of their own, and with the coming cold wave (in a few years), this will result in famine.
Unable to farm efficiently for a large starving population will cause millions to die, specially when Russia cuts off the export of oil, since they will need all of it themselves.
Oh Noes! They are all going to die! (alarmist but true)
Let the Germans starve.
