You have to hand it to the green movement. When it comes to their increasingly farcical and delusional race towards the illusory target of net zero, they’re never short of ideas. Bad ideas, that is.
E-bikes and E-scooters that have an unfortunate tendency to explode in the middle of the night. Electric cars which take days to charge – when you can find a charger. Motorists threatened with eye-watering fines if they dare to go faster than 20 miles an hour. Honestly, don’t be surprised if the next generation of cars come equipped with only two gears and a built in speed inhibitor.
But here in Ireland, we have really taken the lead in coming up with Very Bad Ideas. In fact, the latest might be daftest yet.
The government wants to kill our cattle.

Potato Famine again
Is Bono ok with this?
Don’t f with my Kerrygold butter…
The best place to raise cattle is in wet areas where water vapor drowns out the effects of methane (and where the grass tends to be green and grow).
Cattle allow land that is not suitable for crops to produce food.
Wont even need cars then. Just ev golf carts. All of Ireland will turn into The Villages.
RE: Limits on drivers and someday cars with “a built in speed inhibitor.”
The Marching Morons by C.M. Kornbluth was a science fiction story in Galaxy magazine in 1951.
The high number of stupid people having lots of children and high IQ couples having few has led to a large majority of total fools who have to be taken care of all the time.

Note: Replacement rate for Americans is not being reached today. Average children in a family is under 2. Women do not get married, have abortions or delay having their one child until later in life.
No way of knowing how high IQs are for the much lower number of children being born. Anecdotal evidence shows highly educated women have fewer children.
There are an average of 0.78 kids per family in the USA.
2022 data reveals that American families had an average of 1.94 of their own children under 18 — a drop from 2.33 in 1960. TestHut.com May 16, 2023

Killing cows is just practice.
how is this different from sacrificing animals to the inscrutable weather god?
Chances of achieving “netzero? ZERO! So many dumbasses....
It's in their genes and in their culture.
WEF wants the Irish to eat bugs and cheap Cargill and ADM agribusiness starch instead.
You want to kill all the cows to save the planet. Go preach that line of reasoning in India and see where it gets you.
It isn’t. Jesus Christ alone is God, and He already sacrificed His life for our salvation!
He probably is, just like the rest of Hellywood!
Due to health problems, sterilization was necessary in my case. I was always careful, but with me in kidney failure and pre-eclampsia in my family, a pregnancy surely would have killed me. I never wanted to make the choice between my life or my child’s - the drugs I had to take would have been more thorough than an abortion.
There are days where I’m horribly sad that I couldn’t have kids. I’ve had coworkers tell me I’d be a great mom, and my first job was at a daycare; they have no clue that I’m sterile.
Can’t do anything about it now. I’m rounding the corner to 40, and I’m not where I hoped I’d be in life when I was a teen. The sh¡t economy and the fact that I was out of the work force for almost 15 years was a financial killer.
Avoid being dependent on the government at all costs. It’s why I’m stuck where I am; I have disposable income for the first time in many years, and I STILL won’t be able to catch up to the point where I can afford a home, let alone kids.
People go mad from time to time. After WW I we sank our own battleships to bring peace. See how that worked out.
I looking to see the west force electric tanks on the military. Save the Planet, Man!
See ya suckers....
‘Jesus Christ alone is God, and He already sacrificed His life for our salvation!’
what about the millions of people who lived prior to Christ...?
“Irish butter is among the best.”
Amen and then some but no way in heck can I afford it anymore!
Got butter at Aldi’s today at $2.39/lb.
Ain’t coming anywhere close to Irish.
Damn sniffy Joe and his screwing our economy.
