Biden administration sets sights on farmers for causing ‘climate change'
2023-06-01
[Frontline News] The Biden administration this month began targeting farmers for contributing to "climate change" through the greenhouse gasses emitted by livestock excretions.

Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry blamed food production for global warming at the Agriculture Innovation Mission for Climate Summit hosted by the Department of Agriculture earlier this month.

"A lot of people have no clue that agriculture contributes about 33 percent of all the emissions of the world depending a little bit on how you count it, but it's anywhere from 26 to 33," Kerry said. "And we can't get to net zero, we don't get this job done, unless agriculture is front and center as part of the solution. So all of us understand here. The depths of this mission."

The climate commissar went on to say that the agriculture sector "needs innovation now more than ever. We're facing record malnutrition, at a time when agriculture more than any other sector is suffering from the impacts of the climate crisis."

Kerry announced that he is changing the term from "climate change" to "climate crisis" and warned about the emissions from "food systems".

But even according to "climate science" estimates, all the world’s greenhouse gas emissions are likely entirely absorbed by trees, which then emit enough clean oxygen for all Earth’s residents.

Kerry’s remarks are a worrying harbinger for the agriculture sector if the Biden administration follows its globalist colleagues in Europe, who are shutting down farms to appease the climate.
