Victory for Europe’s farmers as Brussels caves in on emissions targets and eating less meat - eviltoast

The European Union has caved in to angry protests from farmers, cutting its target to scrap specific agricultural emissions which formed part of the bloc’s net zero drive.

A demand to reduce nitrogen, methane and other emissions linked to farming by almost a third has been removed from a wider Brussels plan to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 90 per cent by 2040.

    I have a feeling the ecosystem won’t give too many fucks about our protests. Let’s see those sad farmer faces when a heatwave wipes out their crop. Then they’ll be asking for subsidies.

    Fuck this species and all the worst to us in an upcoming apocalypse of our own making.
