Dutch police open fire at teenage tractor driver during farmer protest

Sometimes, the regressives don't have a clue.  It is interesting, the Netherlands is the 2nd largest exporter of agricultural products, etc., I guess the government there wants to move them out of the top ten.

 

Dutch police open fire at teenage tractor driver during farmer protest

 

The unrest among Dutch farmers was triggered by a government proposal to slash emissions of pollutants like nitrogen oxide and ammonia by 50 per cent by 2030. Provincial governments have been given a year to formulate plans to achieve the goal.

 

The reforms are expected to include reducing livestock and buying up some farms whose animals produce large amounts of ammonia. Farmers argue they are being unfairly targeted and are being given no perspective for their future.

 

The plans have sparked immense rage from farmers and their allies throughout the country. Dutch farmers have blocked supermarkets, distribution centers and roads in protests in the past week.

They think only of intentions, never consequences.

So a bunch of socialist urban planners are working to drive agriculture out?

That is part of the great reset plan.  The elites will control most if not all major food sources.  

Here in America, we have Bill Gates becoming the largest farmland owner.  Makes me wonder why...

A common sense approach which means the Left will not listen.

 

BJORN LOMBORG: Going organic might be fashionably green, but it won’t feed the world

 

Long simply a fashionable trend for the world’s 1%, environmental activists have increasingly peddled the beguiling idea that organic farming can solve hunger. The EU is actively pushing for a tripling of organic farming on the continent by 2030, while a majority of Germans actually think organic farming can help feed the world.

 

However, research conclusively shows that organic farming produces far less food than conventional farming per hectare. Moreover, organic farming requires farmers to rotate soil out of production for pasture, fallow or cover crops, reducing its effectiveness. In total, organic approaches produce between a quarter and a half less food than conventional, scientific-driven agriculture.

 

This not only makes organic food more expensive, but means organic farmers would need far more land to feed the same number of people as today — possibly almost twice the area. Given that agriculture uses 40% of Earth’s ice-free land, switching to organics would mean destroying large swathes of nature for less effective production.

100% organic worked 200 years ago, when the world's population was a 10th of what it is today.  People seem to forget that at one point, we didn't have GMO anything, and no pesticides.  And in places, hundreds if not thousands of acres of crops were wiped out from time to time.  There's a REASON we developed insecticides.

What I don’t understand is that crops need CO2 as well, so the more the better.

The environmentalists wouldn't mind if every farting animal (cows, moose, etc.) were shot.

Still waiting for the animal-rights activists to confront them about this.

None of it matters.

The nefarious thing here is they also want to starve people into the grave.  They won't tell you that, but it is their end goal, depopulation.

What is crazy to me is how so many still think this is a conspiracy theory, so many years later.
