I am an organic dairy farmer in the Maine. We just had our annual regional meeting with the company that buys our milk and the entire first 3 hours was the different things we can give to our cows to reduce methane. I don’t buy it for a second. One of the most effective. This is another grift; ethanol anyone?

Great read, all your articles hit close to home (in more than one way) for me. Thanks.

We’re through here. You’ve got nothing but agitprop bullshit. Absolutely nothing. Projection, lies, and an all-around fakeness about you that’s completely unbecoming.

If Vladimir sees this shit, you are going to have your mail sent to Siberia for the rest of your days. Which won’t be too many.

How will you feed soils and grow plants without cow manure? -- more synthetic fertilizers? Green Manure (Biomass)/ I thought we had previously agreed here the problem is the industrialization of cows, not cows themeselves. Cows rotationsally grazed sequester massive amounts of carbon, and feed more soil uptake of methane than they emit. But you bash cows -- is that projection?.... Cheese is good. There is no synthetic cheese....

Ethanol is nothing but a corn Saturday to the farmers and corporate donor class. It takes 5 quarts of gasoline to produce a gallon of ethanol. Use the most brown energy policy imaginable.

"Next thing you know, the government will work with private business entities to compel humans to take an experimental vaccine, with inadequate study, while providing unlimited protection from liability for any harms caused."

Actually, they've been studying the effects for decades, in the third world:

Take your disingenuous bullshit elsewhere. As of today, November 4, 2023. The numbers are lower than ever before but, you still have a 14 times greater likelihood of ending up in the intensive care unit or dying without the vaccine and boosters. I’ll play with house money every chance I get. Stop the stupid.

Where is the evidence vaccines work at all? And were they properly tested? I think not.

Hell, it’s in the virus famine of the common cold. And entity we have had zero success in any kind of preventative measure. It’s a complete miracle that the mRNA technology was available, coincidentally at the time of the virus.

Is it perfect, no. Didn’t save lives? Yes, about 20 million worldwide as a conservative rounding down estimate.

It past the same exact standards as all pharmaceuticals do in the United States. Now, if you want to call bullshit on that, I’m with you. But the evidence is clear. As of two days ago, you are still 14 times more likely to be in the intensive care unit or die, if you are unvaccinated. It’s not fucking simple. Man now either you don’t understand relevant statistics are you aren’t intentionally disingenuous asshole. Either way, not cool.

It's a wonder I've managed to survive without the jab.

The numbers I'm looking at tell me excess deaths were higher in 2021.

I suppose we all choose our own bullshit, but Eddie is welcome to talk to me.

Random fake account agitprop account on the Internet is the least credible source of information I know of except for your plumber sister’s cousin’s boyfriend on Facebook. Get out of that basement in Saint Petersburg, and slow down on the vodka, Ivan. You’ve got no respect, ability or credibility. You can’t just say shit and assume people are going to take you at face value for you. You have to cite a credible source. But you won’t and you can’t and I’m done here. Loser your mother is so disappointed in your supposed vocation .

Insults, however, are quite effective at changing hearts and minds.

Point taken. I should have said "That is an unknowledgeable statement." Yet why do people think it wise to become dependent on industrial fertilizers, and conflate industrial ag with traditional stewardship? They are completely different.

Traditional stewardship, regenerative agriculture, permaculture - I am so delighted to see it being promoted and used by more and more farmers and homesteaders around the world. It IS completely different than industrial or factory farming. I wonder if it is difficult to explain just how to anyone who doesn't have at least a passing experience with farming or animal husbandry. In America, the bulk of the population is very separated from the source of their food. Sometimes to an extreme degree. I once had someone turn down some of my eggs because, and I quote, "they just came out of a chicken's butt." I was speechless and decided not to ruin all eggs for them for life as it is such a amazing food. LOL

It's ridiculous to dismiss concerns for safety risks in humans as spermatogenesis toxicity in rats should be a trigger for further study! Already environmental toxicity from the estrogenic effects of plastics and chemical fertilizers have reduced spermatogenesis in men, and the trends for infertility are likely to remain problematic for generations. This disregard for human fertility seems to be a prevalent agenda from the WED crowd, who clearly have advocated a population reduction of 80% by 2050. Electronic medical records ask medical personnel to enter"Birth control" method in every individual's chart- no matter the age. They don't want babies born, or they wouldn't try so hard to sterilize children permanently by gender reassignment drugs and surgery. They cheer for late term abortion.

These are not people to be trusted.

That’s a bit ludicrous. There’s 8 billion of us in the oligarchs need labor and consumer capital

They need consumers but they can rely on robotics with AI for labor. I assume they don't expect AI to rebel.

What ever happened to the circle of life with its flow of energy through the ecosystem? This was once taught in elementary school.

Plants and animals depend on each other. Plants take in carbon dioxide, give off oxygen; animals use the oxygen and give off carbon dioxide. One dies and decomposers and creates nutrients for the other.

I'm sure John could explain this better, but you get the idea.

They wish to be god. While we all live in a fallen world and at times do need to intervene ,we would do well to leave the eco system, animal’s and the people alone. Let us work within the natural laws that obviously govern this beautiful planet. We must stand against this madness for the farmers, all people , the planet and future generations.

I don't think I was even through the first paragraph before I knew you were talking about a very bad idea.

If you really concerned about health, yours, and the planets, you would eliminate cow dairy from your diet. Goat and sheep’s products are far superior ......actually good for you.

Its a fallacy that cows hurt the ecosystem. My cows are grass fed. And I have 50 sheep... :)

Cow dairy is a terrible practice for the environment and for people. No matter the diet.

Cows are for beef. Cow dairy is bad for human beings. The only thing in it that’s not harmful is the water. The milk, solids and sugars are not something human beings evolved to metabolize. Even the milk fats are not a good thing for us. Goat and sheep’s milk, products and any other two teated memo like camels and boroughs, are very much like our mothers milk, and can be made into products that are actually good for us.

It is not a fallacy given the feedlot industrialized GMO corn, agrabusiness model. What you are, I do is not relevant, statistically speaking. As I have said numerous times, it is not the production of beef, but the method of doing so. Now, there are limits and I would say that they are logically somewhere around the large grays are numbers pre-the destruction of bio regional habitats. In North America, the bison. In Europe, you original numbers of aurochs.

Then we agree it is the method of raising them. Of course we can shift back to regenerative methods. We must....
