Throughout history, when food production has fundamentally changed or agriculture has been disrupted, the results have been devastating.
Europe has been doing this since the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement. The US would be exactly where Europe is now, but Donald Trump has disrupted that entire change. today, European farmers are fed up They are spraying fertilizer on government buildings in protest.
Biden’s “Build Back Better” has not only wreaked havoc on most households across the country, it amounts to a stealth war against American farmers.
Have you heard more about these protests in the news? Remember yellow vest protests?Coverage was everywhere and 24/7.? Why such sporadic coverage compared to these farmer convoys and protests?
No one is asking the farmers why they are leaving their fields and protesting in the city. It’s not often mentioned or you’ll see articles like this: This is from the GuardianThe author’s “expert” opinion claims that farmers are “exploited by the far right.”
It’s certainly not about Europe’s crazy Agenda 2030 plans. It’s not about rising diesel prices or fertilizers becoming more expensive and difficult to obtain. Or what about the fact that government regulators are more concerned with globalism’s climate change goals than with the economic well-being of the people they claim to represent? This is what happens when you are ruled by unelected bureaucrats who only benefit from the globalist elite.
Less land means less food
of european commission announced plans to fundamentally change food production. It is obscured by phrases such as “increasing the resilience of agriculture and forestry to climate change.” It points out that agriculture accounts for 10% of the EU’s total greenhouse gas emissions. The next line presents a plan to quasi-nationalize all of Europe’s industries and means of production.
It says emissions from agriculture are behind energy, transportation, housing, commerce, and finally the agricultural industry. They want direct government intervention in basically every industry until there is no private industry left. This is 21st century fascism and has nothing to do with climate. This is a power play. It’s about taking control.
But the problem for these neofascists is that farmers aren’t the type to be pushed around. That’s why we’re now seeing farmers protesting across Europe.
The EU’s agri-climate document discusses clamping down on two major ‘greenhouse gases’: methane and nitrous oxide.
Methane emissions primarily come from livestock. Reducing these emissions could involve everything from culling herds to requiring different types of feed. This alone will fundamentally change the amount of food available and create new expenses on top of already high operating costs.
Nitrous oxide is the main ingredient in fertilizers. We all know where this is going. In other words, it is a total ban. Two years ago, with the ban on nitrous oxide; Collapse of food production in Sri Lanka. One rice farmer told Reuters: “Last year, I harvested 60 bags from these two acres. But this time I only harvested 10.”
The European Commission’s plans for farmers include “green direct payments”. These are effectively bribes to those who bend the knee. To receive these bribes, farmers and ranchers must “maintain permanent grasslands.” That means you have to farm. few land. In other words, few food.
We must also work on “crop diversification.” This is European governments telling farmers what to plant. How did farmers survive for thousands of years without government “experts” telling them how to do their jobs?
Finally, there is a need to “dedicate 5% of arable land to ecological priority areas.” This also means less crops and food.
Please note that in Europe these are not suggestions. This document describes the ‘monitoring process’ that will be adopted and how it will all be supported by a ‘legal basis’.
If the media went to the trouble of asking European farmers what they were protesting about, they would say: These restrictions not only cut down on people’s food supply, but they also cost farmers and ranchers their livelihoods. A family that means not being able to stand up.
Biden wreaks havoc
This has nothing to do with climate. It is about forcing the agricultural sector to partner with the government. It used to be called Fascism, but now it’s simply called Build Back Better, The Great Reset, or whatever other name it plans to rebrand and rename in the future.
But this isn’t just happening in Europe. It’s much more advanced than we are. Joe Biden said farmers under his administration are “thriving,” but talk to any of them and they’ll tell a much different story.
One Kansas wheat farmer told Fox News that he and his family were in “survival mode.” He cited volatile markets, out-of-control diesel costs and soaring fertilizer prices as the main factors behind the financial crisis. Sound familiar?
Biden’s “Build Back Better” has not only wreaked havoc on most households across the country, it amounts to a stealth war against American farmers.
Since Biden became president, farm costs Increased by $100 billion. The total cost to American farmers to raise crops and livestock is now at an all-time high of $460 billion. Who can afford that?
A better question might be: Is that really the point??
They want to put farmers in a no-win situation where partnership with the government remains the only option. Similar to the EU, Joe Biden announced bribery techniques to involve farmers and ranchers.
Biden announced in November: $5 billion package For rural communities. This includes many of the same regulations promoted by the European Commission. All that is missing is a legal framework for compliance checks and penalties, but how long will it be before that is added?
Donald Trump has stopped the disastrous path Europe is already on, but how long will it be before Europe’s food wars are adapted and implemented by our own governments, who can tell farmers what to grow? Do you want government? do not have grow up? Do we want to be ruled by unelected bureaucrats who care more about climate change goals than whether Americans have enough food?
All of these things are downstream from the Great Reset, and who you vote for in November will have a huge impact on whether they happen.
