[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 7843708, member: 2119"] There isn't a direct attempt to "takedown global fertiliser supply", but I'd agree its an indirect and for some people an unforeseen consequence of proceeding too fast with "greening" policies. What bothers me much more is that while some of us have clearly seen these damaging consequences to essential industries, nobody generally seems to care very about it or can see the serious problems that will result in a few months time with availability and price of food commodities. If I was a government in Western Europe I'd be doing my damnedest to get these factories going again regardless of the price of gas. Arguments about the rights and wrongs of government intervention and about the carbon footprint of ammonium nitrate production will be insignificant compared to the storm of civil disquiet and even conflict over supplies of food that could arise if this situation isn't quickly resolved. Our leaders are either ignorant of the impending crisis or really do believe their own "greenwash" that we can somehow muddle through without artificial fertilisers in the short term, We absolutely can't do that. and if they continue with inaction they will pay a hell of a price.
