Mass Protest in the Netherlands by Farmers.

I'm seeing it reported in the UK independent, Irish examiner and plenty of US news sites too. So it is being reported on and not supressed. It might not get hour by hour coverage but reoorted on. Imagine the articles aren't as sensational as what you'd see on Facebook though.

World population is aiming for 8.5 billion in 2030

Almost 10 billion by 2050

The choice is more intensive farming in places like Ireland or burning down the Amazon for agriculture. The EU has chosen less farming in the EU and burning down the Amazon.

Or is it the intention of Green types to purposely starve people? How many lives is a gram of Co2 worth on the Carbon trading markets?

"The environmental challenges posed by agriculture are huge, and they’ll only become more pressing as we try to meet the growing need for food worldwide. We’ll likely have two billion more mouths to feed by mid-century—more than nine billion people. But sheer population growth isn’t the only reason we’ll need more food. The spread of prosperity across the world, especially in China and India, is driving an increased demand for meat, eggs, and dairy, boosting pressure to grow more corn and soybeans to feed more cattle, pigs, and chickens. If these trends continue, the double whammy of population growth and richer diets will require us to roughly double the amount of crops we grow by 2050."

"double the amount of crops by 2050"

Double, not less than current, double.

The EU is taking the policy steps towards importing food from Brazil while reducing our own agricultural footprint and it is utter insanity.

The cops shooting at the tractor driver just shows it doesn't matter where in the world you go, there'll be cops just dying to get a sneaky shooting in whenever they can. "Oh he was driving right at us!". Scum and nothing else.

The wheels are coming off big time pretty much Europe-wide but we're still in the denial phase. Just look at inflation over the last year+ and the clear and obvious "it'll peak soon, honest!" nonsense those "in the know" have been putting out.

I wonder what they eat in Davos and Brussels and other places where these decision makers eat. I wonder what their carbon footprint is. Or how big there homes are, and how much it costs to heat them.

Sorry but I dislike the "Do as I say, not as I do" approach to these types of laws.

The biggest contribution to pollution is from the exploding population growth in the third world. Why do we have to feel guilty every time we have a burger or a steak?
