Extinction Rebellion and Farming
- Thread starter Chris F
- Start date
so no farmer has increased fert use in 40 years
the reason we are getting extrems is up to 50% of the people can no longer afford to live in their country's .
maybe if the businessman ,was forced to work along side his slaves ,things might change
a lot have decreased fert use

Or no use at all .
Why aren’t they using candles for light and cooking with a wood fire.?
Of course they don’t want animals so no fat for candles, don’t want to burn wood even if waste as it pollutes the atmosphere,yet it is ok to power a generator with fossil fuel creating Co2 which they are so much against, ffs, you would have job to make it up.!!!!!!
Double standard hypocrites
Despite what @delilah says I believe Extinct Rebellion and the Animal Rebellion movement all like to publicise the worst about worldwide agriculture, a they never seem to support agriculture, yet it is the industry which fills their stomach which ever diet they chose to eat.

Why should UK ag engage with XR ? Here's an example:
At a conference last week there was a workshop 'XR and farming'. A lady spoke about her personal circumstance. She is the owner of an estate on which she has several farming tenants. She is also a supporter of XR - must be heavily involved as she knew all the weird hand signals they use in meetings.
That lady is currently deciding what to do with her estate, she said that she is minded not to renew the existing tenancies. Her decision will largely be influenced by her membership of XR and the principles they hold.
You've got two choices here:
Explain to that lady that the best way she can help the environment is to keep her estate in a reasonable level of production, so as to reduce UK food miles.
Tell her that XR are a bunch of nutters, in which case I can quite imagine that she will rewild her estate and in doing so achieve the square root of sweet FA for the environment.
and yes, I did suggest that she have a look on here
.With the greatest respect ,I would think the above person may be very well intentioned in hers ways, but if her life style was analysed , she may turn out to be a double standard hypocrite, but not realising she is till it is pointed out to her. Of course I may be completely incorrect in my thinking.Why should UK ag engage with XR ? Here's an example:

Does the lady have the final say what policy her estate follows, or would there be Trustees “ that could overrule her if they were against her policy?Why should UK ag engage with XR ? Here's an example:

South of England type farms, I wont say more than that in case she gave away more than her tenants are aware. Chatham House rules and all that.

A spokesperson from ER had a real grilling from Andrew Neil last night on the TV. He basically accused them of scare tactics and complete exaggeration of the accepted facts. IMO they have lost all credibility and are trying to frighten the teenagers into believing that if nothing is done they will all die in the next decade. I think they have lost the argument.
