    The carbon capture scam continues. What captures carbon and is completely organic, non-toxic, an natural? Trees. But the NWO cannot control that. The World Economic Forum has a new proposal: engineered crops whose roots DO NOT ROT when the plants die, and “capture carbon”. (This may be why they are buying up farmland like crazy.) https://igorchudov.substack.com/p/genetic-lab-designed-carbon-capture?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=emailWEF article claims: "Global food systems feed a growing world population, but are a major contributor to climate change." It's time to get rid of food crops. WEF link to "Explained: How engineered crops can fight climate change": https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2022/07/engineered-crops-can-fight-climate-change/.

  • Billionaire Bill Gates wins legal approval to buy huge swath of North Dakota farmland worth $13.5M after outcry from residents who say they are being exploited by the ultra-rich

    Bill Gates has secured legal approval for the controversial purchase of thousands of acres of prime North Dakota farmland, after the deal drew fury from the state's residents. The state's Republican Attorney General Drew Wrigley had inquired into the land sale, and on Wednesday issued a letter saying the transaction complied with an archaic anti-corporate farming law. The Depression-era law prohibits corporations or limited liability companies from owning farmland or ranchland, but allows individual trusts to own land if it is leased to farmers, which Gates intends to do. Gates is now the largest private owner of farmland in America...

    North Dakota Attorney General Drew Wrigley wants to know what Bill Gates' intentions are after the tech billionaire purchased six parcels of land in the state's Pembina County. Public records cited by AgWeek show that 2,100 acres of potato farmland were purchased from the owners of Campbell Farms, a potato farming group that is headquartered in Grafton, North Dakota, about 50 miles from the Canadian border. According to The Daily Caller, Wrigley sent a letter to Red River Trust — a group with ties to Gates — on Tuesday, demanding to know how it intends to use the land. North...

    The cascade has begun. For those who have read at least several books on famine, little if any of this is suprise. Those who have read, say, 5-10 books on famine can go ahead and take the written test and likely be pretty predictive of what is too unfold. Witness how accurate I have been since January 2020 on food issues. Incredibly accurate. Reading history is like cheating. Soon, people will begin to die in small areas by the hundreds, then thousands. More countries will begin to shut food exports, as should the United States. To be clear, this exacerbates...

    If you’ve ever wondered why Bill Gates owns more farmland than any other private citizen in the United States, we may know the answer… To control meat consumption. If livestock owners don’t have places to grow food for their animals to eat, they can’t keep the animals… and when the animals go bye-bye, in walks the “fake meat industry.” “This is a conversation we need to have. Bill Gates owns more farmland in the US than any other, and in a time of dwindling supply, he’s pushing the idea of meat elimination. The words of a delusional man.”

    The coal plant is closing, along with the mine that feeds it and has nearly 115 more employees, and all the workers will lose their jobs over the next decade ... The same scenario is playing out in other small towns across the U.S. After decades of relying on coal for their workforce, tax base and way of life, the towns face uncertain futures as new state and national legislation forces the retirement of fossil fuels ... The impact spreads beyond the plants workers and is felt by the rest of the community, too. In Craig, much of the infrastructure...

    "The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is continuing its U.S. agricultural takeover, buying hundreds of thousands of arable acres across the nation. The purchase of U.S. land is part of the CCP’s food security initiative, posing a significant threat to food and national security for the American public. Republicans appear willing to confront the risk by introducing amendments to H.R. 4356 and 2022 Agricultural Appropriations bill to limit land ownership and tax incentives for foreign investors. At the beginning of 2020, Chinese investors had purchased upwards of 192,000 acres of American agricultural land. The value of the land is roughly $1.9...

    U.S. lawmakers are acting with increased concern as Chinese purchasers are buying tens of thousands of acres of U.S. farmland. As of the start of 2020, Chinese investors owned about 192,000 acres of U.S. agricultural land valued at about $1.9 billion, according to Politico. While Chinese land ownership in the U.S. is less than that of other foreign nations, the growth in Chinese land ownership is part of an overall trend in China rapidly buying up other country’s farmland over more than a decade. In 2018, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) reported that China’s agricultural investments in other nations...

    There’s an old saying that we should invest in land because there’s a limited amount of it, so it won’t lose its value. But when it comes to farmland in the United States, there could be a more pressing reason to invest these days – national security. China has become one of the biggest players in American agriculture. In the decade ending in January 2020, the Chinese snapped up 192,000 acres of America’s 900 million acres of farmland. That may not sound like much, but some experts say China’s influence is much larger but concealed by having American straw owners...
  • Farmer sues over being forced to choose between farming or his constitutional rights

    Sioux Falls, South Dakota; : A third-generation farmer filed a lawsuit today against the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which is unlawfully preventing him from farming one of his fields. In 2011, a division of the Department of Agriculture ruled that a small seasonal mud puddle on Arlen Foster’s farm is protected by federal law as a wetland. Even though the federal government has no authority to regulate such puddles, the department is forcing Foster to choose between productively using his field or participating in federal programs for farmers, like crop insurance. “The government lacks the authority to insist that he...

    American Policy Center ^ | 04 MAR 2021 | Tom DeWeese
    Most Americans tend to think of private property simply as a home – the place where the family resides, store their belongings and find shelter and safety from the elements. It’s where you live. It’s yours because you pay the mortgage and the taxes. Most people don’t give property ownership much more thought than that. There was a time when property ownership was considered to be much more. Property, and the ability to own and control it, was life itself. The great economist, John Locke, whose writings and ideas had major influence on the nation’s founders, believed that “life and...

    Microsoft founder Bill Gates is now the owner of the most farmland in the United States, according to Land Report. The Land Report researchers concluded that Gates, now the fourth richest man in the world, and his wife, Melinda, own 242,000 acres of farmland. Everything Bill Gates does comes with an ulterior motive attached to it, he is not the type of person given to spontaneous acts of anything. Gates is the world’s largest private donor to the WHO, but that $4 billion bought him the street cred he needed to pretend he’s an epidemiologist. It allowed him to become...

    All across America, U.S. farmland is being gobbled up by foreign interests. So when we refer to "the heartland of America", the truth is that vast stretches of that "heartland" is now owned by foreigners, and most Americans have no idea that this is happening. These days, a lot of people are warning about the "globalization" of the world economy, but in reality our own soil is rapidly being "globalized".

    The number of acres of U.S. farmland held by foreign-owned investors has doubled in the past two decades, raising alarm bells in farming communities. American soil. Those are two words that are commonly used to stir up patriotic feelings. They are also words that can't be be taken for granted, because today nearly 30 million acres of U.S. farmland are held by foreign investors. That number has doubled in the past two decades, which is raising alarm bells in farming communities. When the stock market tanked during the last recession, foreign investors began buying up big swaths of U.S. farmland....

    President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday promised measures to help prevent foreign investors buying agricultural land in France after a string of international controversies over Chinese purchases. “For me, French agricultural lands are strategic investments on which our sovereignty depends, so we can’t allow hundreds of hectares of land to be bought by foreign powers without us knowing the aims of these purchases,” Macron told a crowd of young farmers at the presidential palace. He was referring to news last year that a Chinese fund had bought 900 hectares of land in the cereal-growing Allier region in central France, following an...
