[QUOTE="Two Tone, post: 7942381, member: 44728"] By all means, you can borrow my calculator. But you’ve probably got the same brand. It’s called a Windows XL spreadsheet. The most stunning thing to me was the enormous increase in CO2 capture that Nitrate fertilisers is bringing to the equation due to enhanced photosynthesis. Many times more so than the CO2 that was emitted during the manufacturing process of it. But this is the good news that they don’t want us to know or is easily forgotten. Despite the fact that every bit of the CO2 that both U.K. CF fertiliser factories produce is used for other industries, such as in abattoirs and the soft fizzy drinks manufacturers. Which if you remember, the Government ordered the CF to start manufacturing again in September 2021 and also despite the fact that CO2 is a GHG that it wants to reduce! The trouble is that there is a lot we do not know and that the media latch onto the bad news of, often distorting what is the actual situation or because nobody has actually performed and published the actual true situation. It seems to me that farming and farmers are a far too easy target to blame. Thus the so called “Public Good” side of ELMs will probably end up being a sham. If you want to distract the public from a problem, create a panic about something else. The word “Terrorism” is particularly motive in doing this. But in this situation, I wonder if it is we farmers who are the ones actually being terrorised? Then there’s Veganuary, Arla Dairy free milk, McDonalds Meat free burgers and Chickenless chicken, all of which the marketing gurus from the food processing companies that buy our meat and dairy produce jump upon to create extra sales at our expense based upon a Public ‘belief’ that all livestock is produced in an un-environmental way. Which isn’t the way we do it in the UK. And doesn’t even register compared to the damage their over-processed ‘Junk food’ they churn out causes! Tofoo, anybody? Let’s knock down a bit more Amazon Rainforrest to grow the Soya it is made from and let the grass our cattle and sheep ate grow uneaten, then rot. Then let’s just casually forget about the fact that as it rots, it releases methane. [/QUOTE]
