John Kerry: Farmers Must Stop Growing Food to Meet ‘Net Zero’ Goals for ‘Emissions’

Joe Biden’s “climate czar” John Kerry is calling for farmers to stop growing food in order to meet the administration’s radical “net zero” goals for lowering “emissions.”

Kerry, Biden’s Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, issued the warning during a green agenda conference in Washington D.C.

During the Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) AIM for Climate Summit, Kerry told the audience that “we can’t get to net zero, we won’t get this job done, unless agriculture is front and center as part of the solution.”

Kerry warned attendees that his and other world leaders’ “lives depend” on farmers ceasing their operations.

Stopping farmers from growing food will lower agriculture “emissions,” Kerry insists.

He continued by noting that he does not even call it climate change anymore.

“It’s not change; it’s a crisis,” he declared.

...

eating meat should be a luxury that is limited to wealthy elitists like himself.

Essentially, the masses must stop eating meat to meet the goals of the elite.

“Food systems themselves contribute a significant amount of emissions just in the way in which we do the things we’ve been doing,” Kerry asserted.

...

Kerry called on world leaders from all around the world to massively scale back their citizens’ farming operations.

He argued that doing so is vital in order to keep the planet cooler as we move into the future.

“This sector needs innovation now more than ever,” Kerry said.

“We’re facing record malnutrition at a time when agriculture, more than any other sector, is suffering from the impacts of the climate crisis.”

“We need economic, social, and policy innovation in order to scale adaptation of these technical solutions and get them into the hands of folks in the fields of small farmers on a worldwide basis.

“This is the promise of AIM for Climate Summit.”

...

Biden, meanwhile, recently vowed that the U.S. will reach “net zero emissions” by the year 2050.

How this happens depends entirely upon how many farms the globalist overlords can force out of business, resulting in much less food and far fewer mouths to feed.

Co-led by both the U.S. and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), AIM for Climate is devoted to slashing farming emissions through investments in “innovation.”

As Slay News has been reporting, examples of this “innovation” include corporate insect-processing factories to replace the public’s meat supply with “food” made from bugs.

“Food and agriculture can contribute to a low-methane future by improving farmer productivity and resilience,” Kerry said.

“We welcome agriculture ministers participating in the implementation of the Global Methane Pledge.”

Does he EVER listen to himself?

They would end up killing each other because none of them would want to be the ones working at anything to produce what they would need to live...like food, shelter and fuel. Unless they expect the people left besides themselves are enslaved and made to do the work...yeah, that’s the ticket!

Hey, Jean Marie, think this way, if you stop agriculture, then your concubine’s business can’t make Ketchup, and if she can’t make ketchup, you won’t have any money to cruise around in your leased Jet, Saul your yacht or live in your half a dozen homes. What a hypocrite. STFU.

Kerry warned attendees that his and other world leaders’ “lives depend” on farmers ceasing their operations.

Who else caught what exactly Kerry said here? That his life and the world leaders lives is his concern...period. He didn’t say the population’s lives, but the “world leaders” lives. This is all we have to know about Kerry and his agenda. He could give a crap about the rest of us, only himself and his friends. Plus making money and lots of it!

[catnipman]

yet another total garbage article: every statement is completely fabricated, with only a single word in each statement actually in “quotes”, which means that the only word in the statement that Kerry actually said was the single word in quotes ...

It's all about transfer of wealth and power. Same as the alt-energy scam which Kerry/Gates are investors in.

The Agriculture Innovation Mission for Climate (AIM for Climate / AIM4C) is a joint initiative by the United States and the United Arab Emirates. AIM for Climate seeks to address climate change and global hunger by uniting participants to significantly increase investment in, and other support for, climate-smart agriculture and food systems innovation over five years (2021 – 2025).

Keywords: climate-smart agriculture and food systems innovation

AKA lab grown meat. Indoor Vertical Farming. CRISPR Cas9 gene editing of food plants and animals. And yes, bug protein.

They want us to believe that building high tech systems to grow lettuce and greens indoors is more "sustainable" than growing outdoors. What it really comes down to is patents and going high tech with everything.

So yes, they want farmers to stop farming and the techie types will grow patented food in patented high tech systems using patented processes. Guess who will be investing in these things?

Well this is odd. They left out #16.

What is 16?

Well peace and justice has kind of gone out the window as of late.

There's Kerry

And there's Gates' ex, Melinda

And here's our brain dead pedo prez saying whatever Dr Jill tells him to say.

And as usual, "public/private partnerships".

Something known as fascism but that word became burnt out with the left calling a certain president a fascist for years. "Accuse the other side of that which you are guilty" Marx/Goebbels/Alinsky, all said similar.

Basically the globalist left has taken over most everything and now wants to take over energy and food. No more manly(and/or white) men on oil rigs or in the field with a tractor.

What's got a bigger "carbon footprint"?

Building and running these high tech systems? (technicians work in them)

Or a dude on a tractor? (farmer to be replaced by technicians)

How about the "carbon footprint of cows walking in and eating grass vs this? ("natural is not a word I'd use to describe this fake meat lab)

So yes, they want farmers to stop farming and be replaced by "climate-smart agriculture and food system" technicians.

Perhaps Yaaawn can prove CO2 causes Global Warming before he decides the world has to starve for his religion.

Hey Lurch, how about YOU live a net zero lifestyle without offsets and show us how its done. Start by doing your world travelling by sailboat.

Insane.....He should be laughed off the stage when he speaks.

[DeplorablePaul]

Eat your bugs and like it.

[moovova]

“Democrat President Joe Biden’s “climate czar” John Kerry is calling for farmers to stop growing food in order to meet the administration’s radical “net zero” goals...”

That’s BS...not what he said. At least backtracking from this clickbait article to the Reuters’ original article the Slay garbage is based on.

Maybe I’m wrong. But then...maybe someone can show me where Kerry actually said he’s “...calling for farmers to stop growing food”.

Three Purple Hearts in four months in ‘Nam.

See my comment #131. We don’t need garbage articles like this.

[Chickensoup]

Meeting ridiculous production goals.

Leftist Soviet Extremist Rigid thinking

Killing people is what is important.

[moovova]

Read the Reuters’ article. NOWHERE in the article does it say “John Kerry is calling for farmers to stop growing food”.

The Slay article is crap.

[Deplorable American1776]

Kerry, your wife was an heir to a food company. When you eat a plate of bugs live on TV, along with the Biden administration and the Democrat leaders of the house and Senate, then I’ll try it.

“ V-GER must remove…the carbon-based infestation…”

[FlingWingFlyer]

Kerry is trying to become the Poster Boy for the Babylon Bee.

[old curmudgeon]

Marie-Antoinette......

“let them east cake.....”

There is a history lesson there for those who would say “let them eat bugs...”

[butlerweave]

Maybe Kerry should stop buying Food
