From the article: “Farmers were getting off lightly compared with other sectors, said Sweeney. “Agriculture has received a very generous emission ceiling, largely due to the powerful lobby groups it possesses.”

Not to mention that whole eating thing.

This is coming to farms in America if it hasn't already. The same idiots who brought us shit vaccines and lock downs want us to eat bugs or starve. John Kerry flies around on private jets and lives in mansions. He wants us to live in tents. He can go F himself.

You could just hang your politicians and green activists instead.

They are reducing carbon by cutting food production. Of course the CO2 sources they intend to reduce aren’t cows, it’s people.

They’ll play the politics both ways, they’ll denounce the rising prices all while they are causing the rise in prices. Something like they do with rising energy prices.

And people who are starving and shivering in the dark will keep voting for them. Or at least the press will say that they do, and most people will believe it.

The politicians ordering food to be destroyed for climate should be sent for psychological evaluation

“How about everyone just say no and disobey those climate clowns.”
Just ignore the weak fools. Demented and foolish is the person who concludes that cows are harmful to the environment.

How many people in Ireland? 1.3 million. China? 1.4 billion. India? 1.4 billion. Russia? 145 million.

So Russia, China and China are not following the rules and they have 3 billion people.

But tiny Ireland or 3 million people are expected to do their part?

Okay...

I guess we have to do something to fight back. Massive disobedience. Make them unsuccessful. Klaus and Yuval are disgusting skinny legged homo pigs pushing that retarded ideology ruining lives.

Make them be the ones to show their violent hand and hate for humanity.

Seems to be a lot of that going on. Culling of cattle herds, I mean.

We will eat crickets, drink cockroach milk, sit in the dark, and own nothing. But, by golly, we WILL be happy! It will be DECREED!

When the police in Ireland found themselves being enforcers for the British, the IRA went to one or two of their homes and killed them in front of their families. The rest got the hint and pretty much quit.

The British were forced to create the Black and Tans and..as they say...the rest is history.

That’s not what happened. Although the IRA were murderous thugs like that.
