German Green Party Proposes Ban on All Industrial Farming

[BREITBART] The Green party in Germany said it will ban industrial farming to reduce global warming if it comes to power.

The measure was proposed by Katrin Goering-Eckardt, the party’s leader in the Germany parliament, as part of a massive €100 billion project to finance climate initiatives.

For several years, climate change doomsayers have turned their attention to cattle, as a series of reports demonstrated that "livestock emissions" are more dangerous for the environment than automobiles.

A 2016 article at EcoWatch declared that greenhouse gas emissions from livestock account for a higher percentage of total global emissions than the world’s 1.2 billion automobiles.

Whereas the entire transportation sector accounts for only some 14 percent of global emissions, cows produce a remarkable 14.5 to 18 percent of the global total, the article noted.

#1 You people do know where food comes from, right? And that before modern farming, pretty much everyone worked on a farm from sunup to sundown?

#3 Cattle being ruminant animals are the only animals that can efficiently convert grass into protein, a large percentage of agricultural land is best or only suited for grassland.Ruminant animals have always been part of our environmental makeup.

#4 Not beef farmers Steve. Dairy, yes.

Having grown up with and worked the later I can only observe, industrial feedlots are one fucked up way to treat - raise animals. Not forgetting close proximity diseases making constant overuse of antibiotics highly necessary. Neither of which you should have in your food supply.

#9 First no energy. Next no food.

I understand there are large tracks of 'pristine' land in Siberia. Maybe whoever follows Merkel can make a trade with Putin before the Chinese take it.
