[QUOTE="som farmer, post: 8662270, member: 86168"] the world is not ready to ditch fossil fuels, it simply isn't possible, everything moves by fuel. yet at the same time the green zealots have convinced politicians that they have to do something, when in reality there is b-all they can do, except shift the blame elsewhere. GM/GE has been presented to the public as 'Frankenstein' food, and successfully scared the public into demanding it is stopped. Some of the G word, is pretty disgusting, while some is very useful. l don't agree with [USER=76758]@delilah[/USER] completely about a elite cartel, but the world is controlled by big businesses, it has no choice, without business, we would still be hunter gatherers, business drives everything. By the same token, to survive in business, you have to be pretty ruthless, compared to most, farming is benign. Those businesses only operate by moving things about, so the further we go on the carbon reduction road, the more it affects them, and indirectly us. Neither business, or the public, are ready to ditch fossil fuels, so a whole new industry, has developed, into conning people into believing they can have 'carbon' saving, and fossil fuels, in truth they cannot. Farming is an easy target, along with the 'G' ideas, its been easy to convince a public, who don't want to accept the truth, we are the big bad guys. And that has been very successful, a huge amount of people, are very jealous of the farming industry. The fact we can do huge amounts to reduce business produced carbon, is quietly overlooked. [USER=76758]@delilah[/USER] is right about control, its done by business, who increasingly merge together, into megacompanies, which will become a cartel, just not quite yet. What can we do about it ? I think its probably to late to do much at all, the die has been cast. How will it all end up ? Not sure anyone knows. If any one is pushing conspiracy theories, just as well chuck another one in. The history of mankind, is a carefully chromicised time line, accepted by all. Except, that time line, is being shot down, with new discoveries every month, forget the pyramids, they are only 4,500 years old, all around Turkey, they are discovering archeologic sites, 11,500 years old, of sophisticated building techniques, when we were still in the stone age, and completely unable to build them, so they say. And withstood the recent earthquakes. So this theory, states that we are not the first civilisation, to inhabit this earth, some go farther, and claim evidence of a nuclear explosion, that pretty well wiped out a civilisation, there is a lot of info about that. True, or false ? Who knows ? Certainly not me. But looking at the world today, it is destroying itself, nuclear weapons are here, posturing, and conflict are here, sounds familiar ? The only certain fact, is that the accepted time line, of our evolution, is very wrong, and out of date. [/QUOTE]
