[QUOTE="delilah, post: 8182072, member: 76758"] Now more than ever. The interface between farmers and the environmental movement isn't represented by Greenpeace but by Sustain. Which bit of the quote in that article from the Sustain chap do you disagree with ? The meat consumption thing is such a minor part of this issue as to be pretty much irrelevant. It is seized on by farmers, greens and the media as a lazy way of creating conflict. edit: If our business folds, it wont be because the Government has issued guidelines on how many grams of meat folks should eat each day, but because of a lack of local, appropriate scale abattoir capacity. Sustain members are working far harder on this issue than are the NFU and AHDB (who are, in actuality, working to make the situation worse). That makes the environmental movement, more than those we pay subs and levies to, our ally. [/QUOTE]
