We’ve all seen this “question” thrown around. It’s a smear disguised as an inquiry meant to present climate activists and climate-conscious people as trying to take jobs away from “hard working” farmers. When talking about climate issues with people, this one of the most common responses I get. But here’s the thing: I know it’s a bullshit question but I don’t how to explain why it’s a bullshit question. Any help? Thanks in advance.
Farmers can actually become a huge part of solving the climate crisis. Regenerative farming techniques can be applied at scale, in any farming system. There are several third party certifiers such as Regenified and Rodale that farmers can use.
