[QUOTE="Bruce Almighty, post: 7835921, member: 297"] We hear all this hypocritical nonsense from Cop26 as the experts fly in and out of Glasgow. "Life at 50 degrees" on BBC2 earlier in the week showed crop failure in certain parts of the world, I really felt for the farmer in Iraq, his wheat & barley had dropped to half a tonne/acre & he was losing money. His combine driver hadn't been taught how to cut a field properly either. In Mauritius they travelled on the iron ore train with their trussed up sheep/goats in the hope of a better life. The sheep/goats were fed on cardboard. In British Columbia a town was lost to a wildfire. In Australia they had similar battles. This was a rare BBC programme that didn't blame British Farmers BUT Meanwhile in Britain we're being told to plant more trees and that cattle farming is bad, even though we all know beef reared on permanent pasture is as environment friendly as you could ever get. Fertiliser prices are at an all time high all over the world. It doesn't seem to have registered with "the experts" yet, but food will soon get short. At 53, I hope I will live long enough to prove that all this stupid re-wilding, stewardship, tree planting,vegan nonsense will leave people hungry, then I will be able to say "I told you so" [/QUOTE]
