@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.
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@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
@Evsthetractor@thisfarmlife@Rob_Percival_ Percival misleading again.
The bulk of soya meal is exported to China, and this is driven by China's industrialization over the last 25 years for mass produced ta & inbuilt obsoletion tech destroying their pastures at rate of 1.5 million hectares every YEAR. So at rate of 3 tonne
@Evsthetractor@thisfarmlife@Rob_Percival_ per hectare, this= 1 mill hectares needed to produce UK's imports less than HALF size Wales. BUT deforestation rate DOWN as soya production risen, & this NOT new deforestation, but largely from existing crops. Then 63% of it is for human use as shown by Sustainable Food Trust. So
@Evsthetractor@thisfarmlife@Rob_Percival_ once again the Soil Association is allowing Rob Percival to use its platform to spread misinformation. Indeed as our beef & sheep consume little, China would be better off importing our beef eg to reduce their imports of soya for eg. Not even Brazilian beef
@JRanganathanWRI@WorldResources@venoir Rubbish based fraudulent pseudoscience construct (livestock long part multi produce holistic systems even producing veg/crops same land AND CO PRODUCE LIKE WOOL) nuanced environmentally. All favours global corps driving problems, & bonkers ethics in play threadreaderapp.com/thread/1387378…
@JRanganathanWRI@WorldResources@venoir So take palm oil for eg: all cooking/baked products even all cosmetics used tallow butter etc when I was growing up palm oil didn't exist as such. Livestock produced all the fats needed for same land & resources & its palm oil etc driving deforestation. Then you have the massive
@JRanganathanWRI@WorldResources@venoir 10% global emissions caused by shift from wool leather etc to synthetics, need CONSTANTLY replacing because not durable, & leave us reliant fossil fuel heating as not insulating. Add carpets soft furnishings etc all useless not durable that can be provided once again by LIVESTOCK
Frustration they feel not being able to impose their (arrogant elitist) beliefs on others, attracts them to authoritarianism. Ironic Horton's praise Marxism, & ironic quotes from him how science can be corrupt, oblivious to fact those with ideological & WEF money corrupting it
Would you have 'followed the science' when Nazi Germany put their corrupted version of it at centre of their policies? Eugenics was consensus.
You let scientists & doctors off the leash many will be delighted to work with authoritarianism, as the idea of them being leashed by
@AddictPerfume@damonrudd@GMB@1GarethWynJones Not much of a researcher, or you'd KNOW this is not driven by meat as such but by China, because they are losing own pasture at rate 1.5 mill hectares a yr for industrial production WEF mass tat, so they need feed. Certainly NOT cows & sheep (pets consume almost as much), and
@AddictPerfume@damonrudd@GMB@1GarethWynJones So how many farms you been to? Me, over 1000 all over Europe, and sourced produce from livestock peoples globally all these places for eg. None will be fed soya. Indeed, I have also studied & sourced leather goods from Brazil/Argentina. and they, it may surprise you to know, do
On going investigation in to the
'tentacles of power' extending Gates influence in to SAGE etc by @KarenH777
All those bemused by climate change being blamed on cows, will be well aware he & also Wellcome, involved in that corruption of media science & NGOs to spiv that too
So may be something useful in here @KarenH777 re Gates. So he's funding for eg Our World in Data(Spivving fake meat based on false narrative) the Good Food Institute (also ex PETA & OPP involvement), The Guardian, & other NGO/academic institutions
Gates just wants your data. Apparently, if your life doesn't have Spotify, Amazon. Flipboard Netflix etc to enrich it you may suffer gender disparity. They want data everyone on planet & use most pathet transparent excuses to push digital ID on humanity: for THEM NOT the poor.
*Kittens* to data. It is OBVIOUS what the problem is you rotten *kittens*. YOUR business models and exploitation has CAUSED gender race and poverty disparity & slavery while wrecking western jobs, & you've been getting uber wealthy THROUGH that data abuse to sell it all.
If you
are in media, academia, or NGOs spivving Gates solutions taking his money, while engaged in Orwellian doublethink on 'disparity', if you don't get judged in this life, & I sincerely hope you will, you will in the next if there is one
