Climate Kooks to Shut Down 3,000 Farms in Holland
Holland is the world’s #2 agricultural exporter. That makes it alarming in the extreme that the country is controlled by globalist moonbats who believe that humans should be denied food so as to please their climate gods:
The Dutch government is planning to buy out and close as many as 3,000 farms in the country, exacerbating an already-bitter dispute with growers as leaders attempt to halve the country’s nitrogen emissions by 2030.
The farms will be purchased voluntarily if farm owners go along. Otherwise, it will be coercive.
The cost: $25 billion. No worries; taxpayers have plenty of money. When they run out, Big Government can print more.
“There is no better offer coming,” Dutch Nitrogen Minister Christianne van der Wal told members of parliament last week.
Nitrogen is such a menace according to global warming doctrine that Holland has a Nitrogen Minister. The air we breathe is 78% nitrogen. But then, plants require CO2 to grow, and leftists regard that as poisonous too.
The plan comes as the Dutch government moves to halve its nitrogen emissions by 2030 in accordance with European Union conservation rules. But to meet that target, the government estimates that 11,200 farms will have to close, and 17,600 others will have to reduce their livestock numbers significantly.
This will reduce the global food supply. But it’s okay if people starve, because they are a cancer on the planet. According to leftist ideology, they could theoretically cause temperatures to rise by a degree or two over the next century, which might conceivably be noticed by dangerously flourishing polar bears.
Moonbat ideology is not easy to take seriously, but its potential effects are no joke. If the globalist climate agenda is not stopped, many will die horribly as food and energy supplies are choked off.
This will have no beneficial impact on the supposedly problematic weather. But it will allow what the Biden Regime calls the Liberal World Order to secure a tighter grip on power. Our ruling class learned from Stalin that hunger makes an effective weapon.
