(from the article):" Why is food suddenly a bad thing? Easy peasy: Farming uses nitrogen, and nitrogen is being blamed for global warming,
so of course it must be eliminated.
In the name of saving the planet, huge swaths of global food production are being targeted.
""Rice is to blame for around 10% of global emissions of methane, a gas that over two decades, traps about 80 times as much heat as carbon dioxide,"
intones the AP.
"Scientists say that if the world wants to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, rice cannot be ignored."
Who cares if half the global population depends on rice for food? Let 'em die."
“ ..The European Commission actually approved a plan that would pay livestock farmers to shut down indefinitely in designated conservation areas
if they agree to never start animal breeding activity elsewhere.
Considering that the Netherlands is a top exporter of meat and agricultural products around the world,
what do you think this will do to food availability and prices?"
" Remember the Sri Lanka government's attempt to impose only organic farming methods on its nation?
The result was nothing short of a humanitarian disaster,
with up to 90% of the population experiencing hunger."
(My Comment): At what point did we hold an election whereby the government became an enemy of the electorate ? I don't remember that election
They are supposed to work for us ; not the other way around
Government is supposed to protect the citizen, and NOT eliminate them; ..when did that change ?
Self-important people like John Kerry and Al Gore whisk around the globe on private jets telling us we should lower our global footprint
all the while they are burning up tons of carbon just to deliver their message to a minuscule crowd of their own supporters
We, the electorate, are NOT the enemy (!)
and we have had enough of their computer generated B.S. for the last 50 years,since in the early 70's they called for a new 'Ice Age'.
They were wrong then,.. and they are wrong now !
