DUTCH FARMERS RISE UP AGAINST FOOD SYSTEM ‘RESET’

by Dr. Joseph Mercola | Mercola.com
July 13th 2022, 2:38 pm

The decision to decimate cattle farming in the name of environmental protection
rings hollow in the face of looming food shortages and potential famine
worldwide.

The Green Agenda isn’t about the environment — it’s about creating a control
system in which the world’s resources are owned by the richest of the rich,
while the rest of the population is controlled through the allocation of those
resources.

STORY AT-A-GLANCE

 * The Netherlands intends to halve its nitrogen and ammonia pollution by 2030.
   To reach that goal, the Finance and Agriculture Ministry now wants to reduce
   the number of livestock by 30%. As a result, many farmers will be driven out
   of business. As with current energy shortages, the resulting reductions in
   farming are said to be an “unavoidable” part of the Green Agenda to improve
   air, soil and water quality
 * Cattle are fed nitrogen in the form of crude protein. While protein is an
   essential nutrient for cows, nitrogen is not efficiently broken down by
   cattle, so a lot of it is excreted in the urine and feces as urea. When urine
   and feces get mixed together, the urea is converted into ammonia
 * Since the amount of ammonia produced is related to the crude protein the
   animals are fed, one suggested way to lower the ammonia is to reduce the
   amount of crude protein in the animals’ diet. A potential problem with that
   idea is that cattle have protein requirements just like humans do. If they
   don’t cut crude protein, they’ll have to downsize their herds, and if smaller
   herds aren’t financially feasible, they’ll have to shut down altogether
 * The decision to decimate cattle farming in the name of environmental
   protection rings hollow in the face of looming food shortages and potential
   famine worldwide. It appears they’re intentionally trying to make meat so
   scarce and expensive that regular people can’t afford it. They can then
   introduce synthetic meat alternatives and insect protein, both of which are
   part of The Great Reset’s food plan
 * While the notion of a pollution-free world is an attractive one, ultimately,
   the Green Agenda isn’t about the environment — it’s about creating a control
   system in which the world’s resources are owned by the richest of the rich,
   while the rest of the population is controlled through the allocation of
   those resources, and that includes the allocation of food

The Netherlands is currently in an uproar over the government’s decision to
reduce the number of livestock by 30% in an effort to halve its nitrogen and
ammonia pollution by 2030.1 As a result of this “green” policy, many farmers
will be driven out of business.2 As with current energy shortages, the resulting
reductions in farming are said to be an “unavoidable” part of the Green Agenda
to improve air, soil and water quality.3

The Dutch government has even appointed a new Minister of Nature and Nitrogen to
oversee the climate goals.4 Provincial authorities now have one year to work out
how they’re going to meet the emission reduction targets.



In a public statement about the new emissions targets, the Dutch government
admitted that “The honest message … is that not all farmers can continue their
business.”5 Those who do continue will have to come up with creative solutions
to meet the new emissions restrictions.


HOW DO COWS CONTRIBUTE TO NITROGEN AND AMMONIA POLLUTION?

Cattle are fed nitrogen in the form of crude protein. While protein is an
essential nutrient for cows, nitrogen is not efficiently broken down by cattle,
so a lot of it is excreted in the urine and feces as urea. When urine and feces
get mixed together, the urea is converted into ammonia.6,7

Since the amount of ammonia produced is related to the crude protein the animals
are fed, one suggested way to lower the ammonia is to reduce the amount of crude
protein in the animals’ diet. (Other factors such as season also impact ammonia
production, but farmers have no control over that.)

A potential problem with that idea is that cattle have protein requirements just
like humans do. It’s particularly crucial for healthy development, muscle growth
and lactation. As noted in a 2009 paper8 by Jane Parish, a beef cattle
specialist in Mississippi, “Providing adequate protein in beef cattle diets is
important for animal health and productivity as well as ranch profitability.”

Responsible farmers give their cattle just the right amount, so cutting crude
protein could impact both the animals’ health and farm productivity. If they
don’t cut crude protein, they’ll have to downsize their herds, and if smaller
herds aren’t financially feasible, they’ll have to shut down altogether.
Needless to say, many are outraged, as skyrocketing fertilizer and feed costs
have already cut profits for farmers and raised prices for consumers.


CURIOUS TIMING

As noted in a July 1, 2022, report by Peter Imanuelsen, an independent
journalist in Sweden, the timing of this brazen attack on cattle farmers is a
curious one, and one that can only really be explained as an intentional
strategy to force us into The Great Reset by manufacturing a food crisis:9



> “We will likely see even more expensive food next year, and unfortunately
> probably famines in some parts of the world. So, what do the genius
> politicians in Europe do? They want to shut down farms because of climate
> change of course! That will surely help! The cows are farting too much!

> That’s not a joke by the way. In New Zealand, they want to implement a tax on
> cow farts and burps! I really don’t get this. We are facing a food crisis and
> they want to shut down farms in the name of climate change? I guess they
> really want you to eat the bugs and be happy. They are working on making meat
> so expensive that the common people won’t be able to afford it. Are you
> enjoying The Great Reset?”

In response to the new nitrogen and ammonia restrictions, an estimated 40,000
Dutch farmers have gathered in protest, arguing the attack on farming is
irrational and unfair, as other industries responsible for far greater amounts
of pollution — such as transport, construction and aviation — aren’t facing the
same restrictions.

They’ve blocked a number of highways with tractors and even sprayed manure on
the town hall in Lochem.10 Local police have reportedly responded by shooting at
some of the farmers. Jimmy Dore reviews the situation in the video above.


WHAT’S WRONG WITH NITROGEN?

As explained by Plant Based News,11 nitrogen makes up about 78% of the earth’s
atmosphere and is essential for life. However, in excess, and in the wrong
areas, it can damage the ecosystem. Nitrogen runoff from concentrated animal
feeding operations (CAFOs) and farms using synthetic pesticides and fertilizers
can leach into and contaminate water supplies.

Nitrogen runoff can also cause algae blooms when it enters lakes or oceans. This
depletes the water of oxygen and creates dead zones where no aquatic life can be
sustained. This is why I’ve long advocated against CAFOs and conventional
industrial farms that rely on chemicals to grow food.

That doesn’t mean livestock are a blight on the eco system, however. Quite the
contrary. Livestock raised in accordance with regenerative agriculture
principles will heal and massively improve soil quality and help stabilize the
climate. So, it’s not cows per se that are the problem. It’s the
industrialization of cattle ranching that causes it to have a negative impact.
The answer, then, is not to eliminate meat production. The answer is to
transition into a regenerative system.

Since the transition can take a few years, during which profits may be marginal
or absent, many farmers hesitate to take this step on their own. Government
could facilitate the transition by subsidizing farmers that make the switch, but
none have opted to do so. Why? Could it be because regenerative farming is the
converse of what The Great Reset is all about?


DUTCH CLIMATE RULES WILL CUT MEAT AVAILABILITY ACROSS EU

In 2019, the highest administrative court in The Netherlands, the Council of
State, ruled the Dutch government was in breach of European Union law that
called for stark cuts in nitrogen emissions.12

Following that ruling, some 18,000 infrastructure projects were abandoned in an
attempt to meet the EU restrictions. The Dutch government also lowered the
maximum daytime speed limit on highways to 100 kilometers an hour (61 mph). All
of that still wasn’t enough though, so now the Finance and Agriculture Ministry
wants to reduce the number of livestock by 30%.

The Netherlands has a significant number of farmers. In any given year, they
raise some 4 million beef cattle alone. But reducing the number of cattle by 30%
will not only have ramifications for the Dutch, but all of the EU, because The
Netherlands is the largest meat exporter in the EU.13

> While the notion of a pollution-free world is an attractive one, ultimately,
> the Green Agenda isn’t about the environment — it’s about creating a control
> system in which the world’s resources are owned by the richest of the rich,
> while the rest of the population is controlled through the allocation of those

In September 2021, Rudi Buis, a spokesperson for the Dutch agriculture ministry,
told The Guardian:14

> “We are a relatively small country with a lot of inhabitants, industry,
> transport and agriculture, so we are reaching the limits of what nature can
> take. There is a high level of urgency for us to tackle the nitrogen compounds
> problem. This means that in the near future, choices must be made.”

Apparently, the option they’ve chosen is starvation and nutritional deficiencies
for all. The saddest part of it is that eliminating meat production is not going
to have the fabulous impact they say it will have. It’s a
fraudulent greenwashing enterprise that will destroy humanity instead.

While the notion of a pollution-free world is an attractive one, ultimately, the
Green Agenda isn’t about the environment — it’s about creating a control system
in which the world’s resources are owned by the richest of the rich, while the
rest of the population is controlled through the allocation of those resources,
and that includes the allocation of food.


THE GLOBAL FOOD RESET FORETOLD BY THE ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION

While looming food shortages are now blamed on climate change and the
Russia-Ukraine conflict, the Rockefeller Foundation discussed coming food
shortages as an inevitability back in July 2020, and called for a revamping of
the food system to address it. Seeing how true prophets are few and far in
between these days, it seems more reasonable to suspect that paper was
delineating a known, intentional plan.

The document in question, titled “Reset the Table: Meeting the Moment to
Transform the U.S. Food System,”15 was published July 28, 2020. It describes how
the COVID pandemic had caused “a hunger and nutrition crisis” in the U.S.
“unlike any this country has seen in generations.”

Mind you, COVID was declared a pandemic March 11, 2020, so by the time this
Rockefeller report was published, the pandemic had only existed for four months,
and while certain high-risk groups did experience food insecurity, such as
children whose primary meal is a school lunch, widespread food shortages, in
terms of empty shelves, were not widely prevalent or particularly severe in the
U.S.

The title itself is also revealing, as it’s a clear play on The Great Reset,
which was officially announced by the World Economic Forum (WEF) and the Prince
of Wales in early June 2020.16 The title alone tells us that the Rockefeller
Foundation’s call for a food system reset is part and parcel of the WEF’s Great
Reset. Many of the contributors to the Foundation’s paper are WEF members, which
further strengthens this connection.

In the foreword,17 Rockefeller Foundation president Dr. Rajiv Shah also stresses
that “a comprehensive playbook” to address the food system will also need to
address other issues, “such as living wages, housing and transportation,” and
that “all of us” — meaning the self-proclaimed designers of the future — “need
to write that playbook together over the coming year.” What better way to
predict the future than to actually create it?

All of those things — wages, housing and transportation — are all facets that
will undergo dramatic revision under The Great Reset’s Fourth Industrial
Revolution, as artificial intelligence, robotics, surveillance, social
engineering and transhumanism (the merger of man with machine) take over.


SUMMARY TAKE-HOME OF ‘RESET THE TABLE’

In summary, “Reset the Table” describes how they intend to seize control of the
food supply and the supply chain under the guise of “equity,” “fairness” and
“environmental protection.” As noted by ThreadsIrish on Substack:18

> “The document is very much framed in the Hegelian dialectic of problem,
> reaction, solution. Here is the problem that they have created (COVID) and now
> they want to implement the solution (Transforming the global food supply).
> Naturally this is all ties into lands being destroyed, climate change and
> trying to move people back into smart cities (Page 5). Surprise, surprise.”

One key to this enterprise is data collection. They want to collect data on
everyone’s spending and eating habits, and to facilitate that data collection,
they want to shift everything into an online environment, including education,
medicine and the buying of food.

Another key to success is “changes to policies, practices and norms.” The goal
is to centralize control of the food supply into a single executive office,
which is right in line with the idea of a “one world government.” As WEF member
Henry Kissinger once said, “Who controls the food supply controls the people;
who controls the energy can control whole continents; who controls money can
control the world.”


FROM BEEF TO CRICKETS

Getting back to the issue of Dutch beef production being strangled, the reason
global leaders seem so unconcerned with dwindling meat production is probably
because they don’t want us to eat meat. They intend for us to eat lab grown
synthetic meat that can be patented, and insects,19 which can easily and
inexpensively be produced in mass quantities using very little land.

As noted in a July 2021 WEF article titled, “Why We Need to Give Insects the
Role They Deserve in Our Food Systems,”20 insects are “a credible and efficient
alternative protein source requiring fewer resources than conventional
breeding,” and “a healthy ingredient” that is highly digestible and particularly
suitable for senior nutrition.

Insect farming also requires few natural resources, such as water, and could
reduce agricultural pollution by nearly 99%. The article points out that the
last barrier to making insect burgers the norm is “preconceived ideas about
insects as a source of food and legislation with regard to the use and
consumption of proteins derived from insects.”

There are indications that “Reset the Table” is promoting a diet of insects as
well, because while it stresses the need for a “healthy diet” and “sustainable
agriculture,” the words “organic” and “grass fed” do not appear a single time,
and the word “natural” is only used in reference to “natural disasters.”

In other words, their versions of “healthy diet” and “sustainable agriculture”
do not include what we know are basic criteria for a healthy, nutritious,
sustainable and regenerative food supply. The Foundation’s call for changes to
“policies, practices and norms” also indicates that the diet they’re talking
about involves something that is outside the norm.

Both lab-grown meat and insects are outside the norm of what most people are
willing to put in their mouth, and thus policies about what constitutes “food”
need to be changed, as do food production practices and social norms about
what’s acceptable to eat and what’s not.


SCIENTISTS QUESTION SAFETY OF LAB-GROWN MEAT

While venture capitalists see lab-grown meat alternatives as the cash cow of the
future, many scientists are leery. In mid-June 2022, the Center for Food Safety
(CFS) held a webinar in which a panel of experts addressed a number of questions
surrounding lab-grown meats, including safety and regulatory issues.21

One of the panelists was Michael Hansen, Ph.D., a senior staff scientist with
Consumer Reports. He raised concerns about cell-cultured meats, where biopsied
cells from an animal are grown in fetal bovine blood (extracted from a live,
aborted baby calf).

His main concern revolves around the use of manipulated DNA segments, as that
could have unforeseen consequences, but he pointed out that we also have no data
on the nutritional composition of this kind of meat. As reported by The
Defender:22

> “According to Hansen, the piece of flesh biopsied from the animal is an
> undifferentiated stem cell. The products use bio-engineered proteins in a
> nutrient solution to induce the cells to differentiate into muscle for meat.
> This is done in bio-reactor vats similar to those used to make beer.
> 
> While scientific papers have covered topics related to cell-cultured meat,
> Hansen said, none has actually analyzed the nutritional characteristics of the
> finished product, and academics have not received samples. This implies
> ‘problems behind the scenes,’ Hansen said, adding, ‘I doubt this technology
> will work.'”

Tom Neltner, chemicals policy director at the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF),
was also part of the panel. Neltner noted that while sustainable protein sources
are needed, lab-grown meats will be proprietary, meaning the full ingredients
list and how they’re made is a trade secret, so “We won’t know their effect or
what they are.” The Defender added:23

> “The concept of proprietary foodstuffs … led the panelists to address the
> regulation of cell-cultured meat and the role of the U.S. Food and Drug
> Administration (FDA), which one panelist called a ‘captured’ agency.
> 
> Neltner said he worried cell-cultured meat could be ushered into the food
> supply under the FDA’s Generally Recognized As Safe program. Under the
> program, a company simply tells the FDA its product is safe, based on the
> company’s own documentation, and bypasses the public comment process.’
> 
> Neltner, whose primary focus at the EDF is food additive safety, said he
> preferred companies be required to submit to the FDA a ‘food additive
> petition,’ which includes a ‘right to challenge.’
> 
> Panelists also raised concerns about the effects novel ingredients may have on
> aspects of the human microbiome. Hansen pointed out that 10 years ago, we
> could not culture and study microbiome components. But now we can, and it’s
> important that we know these effects.
> 
> For example, Hansen said, it is now known that the genome and genes themselves
> can be affected by epigenetic changes without even touching the DNA …
> 
> Hansen said biopsied cells of an animal used in cell-cultured meat do not
> contain the immunity actions from the animal’s immune system, which could
> leave bio-reactor vats susceptible to bacteria like salmonella, fungi and
> worse unless antibiotics are used. Cell-cultured meat producers claim they may
> not have to add antibiotics, although even alcohol distillers have to add them
> to their vats, Hansen said.”


PREPARE FOR FOOD SHORTAGES

Everything now points to food shortages and famine becoming a reality in many
parts of the world, including the U.S. and Europe.24 As yet, stores are still
fairly well stocked with essentials, but that will change come winter and into
2023. This means you may only have another six months or so to stock up.

This past Monday, I published an article with suggestions for how to prepare.
That article, “Get Prepared With Shelf-Stable Foods,” will be made available for
free on Substack, so if you missed it, you can review it now.
