Foxx Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I thought it might be good to have a devoted thread for all the protests around the world that are popping up. In Holland, the elite are attempting to shut down farming. They are doing this to attempt to come into EU regulations on nitrogen emissions. They are trying to reduce the emissions anywhere from 30 to 70%. ... In case it gets deleted: ssstwitter_1657042911.mp4 Considering the size of Holland, this is an impressive turnout. Again, the video: ssstwitter_1657042831.mp4 Elite cracking down... 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this is trying to target nitrogen as a by product of animal manure more than from plants, not that it matters though, since it is absolutely ridiculous because plants need that nitrogen in the soil to grow and green just as much as those plants need CO2. F***ing idiots are the real ones trying to kill the planet whether through ignorance or malice! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F***ing idiots are the real ones trying to kill the planet whether through ignorance or malice! Ultimately, livestock manure is generally fermented plant material. I wonder if hay and corn and other feeds were left to rot, would the nitrogen release be the same? It's great to see the protests, but I have to wonder how long it will be before the Dutch government goes all "Canadian" on the protestors ??? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the Dutch are huge environmentalists so I’m wondering what their population thinks of this. It seems obvious what the farmers think of it. And assuming for the moment that the Tweet about Gates investing $600M in one company is accurate, I’d say it is uncommon for VC investors to give that amount to each of a “bunch of startups”. And I seriously doubt that their strategy when investing $600M is “hope”. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
