@cvfarming Until 40 yrs ago, most coats & suiting were made wool in UK. Most shoes belts etc = leather. A high % of which are still in use. Shift to casual clothing mostly synthetic has seen massive rise in synthetics expense wool; esp last 20 yrs now produced mostly China, and along with

@cvfarming inbuilt obsoletion technology, & things like disposable furnishings this is driving China's massive fossil fuel use as all are non durable business model of mass consumption. Synthetic clothing lasts not even a yr. The companies driving this are all part of the WEF, whose members

@cvfarming have brought this about, and yet, have managed to fund science and media narratives to blame livestock in a bizarre doublethink. It beggars belief frankly, the very people who broke models of sustainability like H&M & IKEA and also of course damaging western manufacturing jobs

@cvfarming producing things in China can utilize cheap & even slave labour, presenting themselves as saviours of world by recycling a tiny % their own crap still involving industrial process &, encouraging us to shift away even more from VERY materials offering solution ie livestock, and

@cvfarming rely more upon their 'alternatives'. This is like putting rapists in charge of women's affairs to me. So 10% rising to 15% of fashions total global emissions are synthetics and cotton: Aral sea eg wiping out 25 endemic species now extinct and destroying fish as a food source, and

@cvfarming fed nobody. A return to wool leather sheepskin etc in clothing BUT ALSO furniture, carpets etc all FAR more durable and at far less emissions, are a unicorn in the room solution at emissions already counted for in meat. ALSO providing cultural & economic autonomy for communities

@cvfarming worldwide with NUANCED environmental solutions & sheep, camelids & goats especially adaptable with high quality co produce= extended community value livelihoods, often on land very marginal & unsuitable for corps too, supporting robust biodiversity planet wide. So these offer the

@cvfarming opportunity to reduce global fashion emissions I estimate by 70% ie FAR outweighing the contribution of meat to emissions. But ALSO providing far superior insulation making us less reliant fossil fuels: everyone over the age of 40 will know full well how annoying it is mid winter

@cvfarming to go out dressed for cold to see people prancing round banks malls & offices polyester/cotton heating blasting. So I think colossal opp for saving heating emissions there too maybe cut UK domestic/public & corporate buildings 50%. Same age group will have been raised on Tallow

@cvfarming for all our cooking, baking, & even cosmetics needs... nobody used PALM OIL a massive cause of deforestation.
Our Agricultural representatives like @NFUtweets @natsheep need to pick up these arguments quickly, as nefarious agents of WEF within government esp re @DefraGovUK who

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK must now be seen as an enemy of rural communities. Goldsmiths are unelected, Zac couldn't even get in during a Tory landslide yet has been shooed in with WEF financier Ben rewilding loons (a NAZI idea as was soya based diets btw) at Defra. These are half wits, who don't have a

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK clue apparently re the bigger picture or worse are part of the WEF con. Look at big financial guru mate Jeremy Grantham funding academic narratives too even encouraging activism....when he is invested in trees/wood SO transparent! Then you have colossal forces of Bill Gates &

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK Wellcome (and Chatham House for eg) linked to funding science NGOs and media narratives against meat. It needs to be confronted and the Tories now seen as betrayal of farming based on big financier disruptive plans. Here's Gates

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK funding of those who locked us down re Covid, but also his funding of anti meat pseudo science & media. A completely fraudulent construct when livestock are so much more, for same land & resources
& Wellcome, similarly and also Chatham House linked.

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK So eg here's my area Monmouthshire, v Almeria industrialized vegetables. Which is better for biodiversity again?

We are up against some true evil & Orwellian doublethink on environment & food but we are not alone as

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK Others are beginning to see WEF stitch up. Powerful, but transparent & their 'science' is utter FRAUD as explained. Look at this evil financial bullying bastard for eg . Don't know him? You should. Because he's the one behind supermarket push to fake meat etc & an investor in it

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK This WEF mob are acting as a cartel who have livestock as the scapegoat, have 'bought' the WEF to be their ecofascists against indigenous peoples as well as frame livestock farmers.

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK And of course when you have big players like Gates & YARA involved, they are determined to press with it, even controlling UN. YARA of course greenwashing through their disgraced UN Environment buddy Erik Solheim, & both also involved with

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK EATLancet, funded by Wellcome, and Gates big involved too in chem fertilizer spivving for YARA. UTTER FARCE Orwellian doublethink on sustainability, human dignity, etc as WEF corporates carve up Africa etc. But as I said others are growing wise to the idea of 'food systems' and

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK imperialism usrtk.org/bill-gates-foo… is being opposed finally, and people like @fleroy1974 has been an epic crusader as have @sakie339 & Frank Mitloehner, & @StephenCorrySvl against the narratives but farmers organizations appear

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK @fleroy1974 @sakie339 @StephenCorrySvl to have been distracted by concerns like Brexit, which minuscule next to this assault by WEF financial & tech elite not just on farming but indigenous peoples, humanity itself, and a global land & resources grab by the very eco crooks who did the damage

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK @fleroy1974 @sakie339 @StephenCorrySvl With sheep, so important to so many cultures, & potential solution to massive fossil fuels use, they made their biggest mistake, & we need to go on the offensive & after all the plant based diet scoundrels & academic NGO & media twisters involved: they CAN be beaten if we unite

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK @fleroy1974 @sakie339 @StephenCorrySvl Indeed, its high time they had the p*** ripped out of them

@cvfarming @NFUtweets @natsheep @DefraGovUK @fleroy1974 @sakie339 @StephenCorrySvl I am engaging all I can on social media with help of @fleroy1974 @Evsthetractor & @1GarethWynJones @JoannaBlythman and many others but we need to pull together and other farmers need to wake up to what we are up against.
