Today is the start of the 5th #CodeRouge action in #Belgium - targeting the #AgroIndustry this time!

Sorry, no more 'toots' today, besides this series. 'Dancing in the streets' [livingroom] has worn me out. And I don't want to rush things.
Why is Nitrogen so bad ? And what has it to do with the #ClimateEmergency ?
Pollution is always bad. Economics above health. And that's the case here; the #AgroIndustry is put above the health of #Nature and humans.
Farmers, for the most part, are not a pop-and-mom enterprise anymore. For centuries farmers have been pushed to produce to an even greater scale by the banking industry and the fertiliser and processing industry. And I shouldn't forget the supermarket [groceries] that always had a strangle hold on farmers to increasingly produce for lower costs, meaning more cattle.
On the face of it Nitrogen is a fertiliser. But unbrideled and unlimited nitrogen is detremental for the nature reserves. It benefits one species at the cost of other more rare species. More nettles and less orchids [we do have those]. After years nature is being atrophied.
The climate comes in as a 'byproduct'. Methane is a gas more potent in destroying the atmosphere than CO2. Some estimation calculate that the burps of all those cows equals all the emissions of Dutch cars.

Act against agro-industry
Somewhere in Belgium, vrijdag 28 februari om 12:00 CET#CodeRood voert weer actie! Deze keer is de agro-industrie het doelwit, in solidariteit met de boeren!
We steunen boeren die zich verzetten tegen de macht van de reusachtige bedrijven die hun producten verwerken, verkopen en verspreiden. Net als de fossiele brandstoffenindustrie vernietigen deze bedrijven ecosystemen en de volksgezondheid, en laten ze ons opdraaien voor hun enorme winsten door middel van imploderende voedselprijzen. 🤬🤯
We verenigen ons met boeren om een voedselsysteem te eisen dat rechtvaardigheid en gezonde ecosystemen belangrijker vindt dan hebzucht en destructieve concurrentie. We willen betaalbaar, gezond voedsel voor iedereen tegen een eerlijke prijs voor de boeren. 🚜📣
Zoals altijd kunnen we de exacte doel(en) en locatie(s) niet onthullen omdat de overheid ons om de een of andere onbekende reden meestal probeert tegen te houden... 🙃😉

#BigMeat #AgroIndustry #Environment #Greenwashing #Disinformation #Propaganda: "None of this is terribly surprising — it’s largely the same denial and deflection playbook run by Big Oil to avoid responsibility for climate change, with the usual suspects helping: industry-aligned academics, front groups, loyal politicians, and social media influencers.
But among those allies are groups that are surprising: some of the world’s largest environmental organizations.
Take the World Wildlife Fund, or WWF, a green giant with over $600 million in assets. WWF and McDonald’s are both founding members of the beef roundtable, and later, the two worked together on other beef-related projects. In fact, that inaugural conference in 2010 was officially titled the World Wildlife Fund Global Conference on Sustainable Beef. (WWF has helped to found similar industry roundtables for poultry and soy — most of which is fed to farmed animals — and a certification program for seafood.)
For its collaboration, McDonald’s makes sure WWF is well compensated; from 2015 to 2022, the company donated $4.5 to $9 million to WWF-US.
From 2017 to 2022, WWF-US brought in approximately $12 million to $28.6 million from various meat, dairy, seafood, fast food, restaurant, and grocery companies, including Tyson Foods, Cargill, Burger King, Costco, Walmart, Red Lobster, Chobani, and Dairy Management Inc., a dairy trade group. (WWF only discloses donation ranges, not specific dollar amounts, and many of its corporate donations are multifaceted, used to address meat and other parts of a company’s supply chain, like plastics, palm oil, and food waste.)"
#Pesticides #Farming #AgroIndustry #PublicHealth: "The just-released analysis showed that “agricultural pesticides can increase your risk for some cancers just as much as smoking,” says coauthor Isain Zapata, an associate professor of research and statistics at Rocky Vista University in Colorado. For example, living in places with high pesticide use increased the risk of colon and pancreatic cancers by more than 80 percent, results that surprised even the researchers.
“In my opinion, that’s crazy,” Zapata said, adding they were not expecting to find such a significant association.
The research idea came from one of Zapata’s students, a medical student who grew up on a farm. The scientists obtained data on the use of sixty-nine different pesticides from surveys conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). They then compared these to cancer incidence rates per county nationwide, using databases from the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention from 2015 to 2019. Finally, they adjusted the analysis for other factors that might have contributed, including socioeconomic disparities. The results were published on Thursday in the academic journal Frontiers in Cancer Control and Society."

Out of the blue I got real mad !
I was reading an age old story about people needing food...
Not a tale about a 3rd world country.
No t'was the MYTH of people in [one of] the richest country on the planet going to STARVE when a bunch of farmers wouldn't get their way.
Pure HOGWASH ! ; CODSWALLOP ! [in short BS]
80% of pork is exported outside the country [as far as China]
60% of our food is imported [that's how rich we are]
After 3/4 of a century HYPING up the #AgroIndustry they get a little headwind.
Now baby gets mad; and when baby gets mad it burns things.
Don't be such a cry baby!
For decades the strongest political forces were handling your interests. It was never too much, never too crazy... otherwise we would starve, right?? A beautifull argument for the strong lobby in the EU.
Until... the shore turned your ship. The soil died? No worries, we sell artificial fertilizer. Too much menure? No worries, tell it to be fertilizer. Still too much? No worries, dump it in the water! Too much bugs? No worries, we've got chemicals that kills all, including the kids of your neighbors. See? No worries, when you cry enough.
No food? No worries cause we'll all be dead, including you!
Disclaimer: only a small group I call #TerrorFarmers ; the majority of farmers do want to change for the better; a smaller fraction are already doing so.

#BBB is een zwerm die exclusiviteit propageert. Is er alleen voor de #boeren. Kijk maar naar hun programma’s van de nu ontstane #provinciale besturen. #Burgers hebben het nakijken. En weet je zwermen komen en gaan. Zijn niet consistent. Kan je toekomst voor dit land niet mee bouwen. En vergeet niet dat #BBB wordt bestuurd door de #agroindustry
While the UN are discussing the worldwide existential crisis about water with droughts and pollution everywhere, yesterday in France happened the biggest protest against megabassins in the countryside. Those bassins are dug to store water pumped up from the underground to irrigate agroindustrial soils in case of droughts (?!). Lots of quite obvious arguments make people mad about them: hydrologic absurdity, inequality...
Some 30k people joined it while the state forbed it. Tens of cops vehicules were mobilized and quickly up to 4k grenades (both explosive and teargas ones) were thrown, rubber bullets were shot. More than 200 people got injured, 3 very badly, 10 got hospitalized, 1 is in between life and death... some cops trucks got burned down and some 20 agents got wounded.
We can't get used to it : the power is complaining again over all the medias against "violent hords of people from the extreme-left", a "rural guerilla"... How fucking hypocrit can a government pushing for a reinforcement of fundamental republican education be also so mad against its people ? The very national anthem's chorus is literally : "to arms citizens, form your battalions, let us march, let an impure blood water our furrows"...
Solidarity with all revolts around the world.
