Russell Brand: "When people see that play out when they see that you know centralized hedge-funded property development firms are acquiring property. When they see that the agriculture from Sri Lanka to the Netherlands is being bankrupted by top-down edicts to change their farming practices in ways that are presented as being ecologically friendly but close examination reveals that by his fruits shall we know him. If the result of an edict is it bankrupts farmers, allowing centralized agricultural interests to acquire land cheaply, then isn't it possible -- likely even -- that that was always the intention?"

Matthew C. Taibbi is an American author, journalist, and podcaster:  "How can you be an American worker who watched the factory that used to be in your town moved to a place like China while the United States gives most favored nation trading status to the Chinese and then listen to a politician say 'Well you know you should learn to code or whatever.' It just doesn't fly. You start to feel like they're not really working for you, that they're working for the people in Davos or something like that."

Europe facing the "physical absence of energy." 

Dr. Jennifer Marohasy, who has been a field biologist in remote parts of Africa & Madagascar & published in international & Australian scientific journals: "It was back in 2001 when WWF launched its ‘Save the Reef Campaign’ on World Environment Day that I got to watch the roll out of an environment campaign close-up.  The injustice of that campaign that was intended to limit nitrogen fertilizer use by farmers in Great Barrier Reef catchments caused me to get interested in politics and I started writing for the IPA, with Gary Johns.  That WWF campaign failed in some of its core objectives and in ways that will now be remedied with the passage of the net zero legislation. ... 

Meanwhile one of the many sad ironies is that the net zero legislation is meant to save the reef from climate change. This legislation won’t save the corals, but it will decimate farming, because as it is rolled-out farmers will be told they can’t keep using nitrogen fertilizers if they are within a Great Barrier Reef catchment. The legislation is intended to force every business to reduce its emissions and the focus in Great Barrier Reef catchments will be on fertilizer use. ...

It is people in these suburbs, most of whom have never visited the GBR, who voted in the new government that will enshrine legislation to put people who live on farms out of business – at least farms in GBR catchments.

Dan Bongino: Here to weigh in is the author of the upcoming book, The Great Reset...Marc, no one knows more about the Great Reset than you, you literally wrote a book on it, we just showed the cover. ...Is what we are seeing in the Netherlands a sign of things to come if the climate activists get their way here in the U.S. and other places?

Marc Morano: ‘We know that Bill Gates’ goal is to get us to stop eating meat and get us to start eating lab-grown, vegetable oil-processed fake meat. The same with Al Gore. The same with the World Economic Forum. They are pushing insect-eating as well. The United Nations, the World Economic Forum...That's been their goal, the whole entire goal. First of all, you have the World Economic Forum which Bill Gates is a prominent member. You have Bill Gates buying up farmland -- the single largest American farmland owner now, according to NBC News. I know no one likes a monopoly so don’t worry Dan. China is also gobbling up American farmland. So it’s a competition. We actually have good old market competition -- China versus Bill Gates. Who do you want to win that battle? ... 

This will have devastating consequences because as the old Chinese proverb says, 'When food is on the table there are many problems. When there is no food, there is only one problem.'

According to calculations done by the Finance ministry, a whopping 11,200 livestock farmers will be forced to shut down by the government to reduce nitrogen emissions in order to meet European environmental rules. Another 17,600 farmers would need to reduce the amount of animals they keep to meet these climate goals. And this is bad. Because there are about 54,000 farms in the Netherlands, meaning that around 1/5 of all farms will be forced to shut down and almost 1/3 of farms forced to scale down and reduce livestock.

Meaning that thousands and thousands of farmers will be loosing their livelihoods in order to meet government climate goals.

By Peter Imanuelsen: "In the Netherlands the state is planning on forcing 11 200 farmers to shut down to meet climate goals. Stalin and Mao seized farmers land. I always told you it is Climate Communism."

Morano on Great Reset chaos in the world today:  "Population control is a huge part of it. They're actually saying that. I interviewed the German climate advisor Hans Schellnhuber at a United Nations Climate Summit, and I'm going to the next UN summit in Egypt. But what they tell you is the carrying capacity of the Earth is only 1 billion people. In other words, more than 1 billion people and the earth is not sustainable. And of course, we have 7.8 billion at last count right now.

So ultimately, they want to come up with this sort of like the movie Field of Dreams with Kevin Costner: 'If you build it, they will come,' that was the motto of the movie. Well, this is sort of the reverse of that movie. 'If you force it, they will disappear.' So they want to redo the world. To a new infrastructure that can only support about a billion people if we go all organic if we get rid of modern agricultural practices. If we shut down modern air travel, if we make inflation and supply chain and we strip away private property and energy usage."

Rutte — a walking embodiment of the Davos Man if there ever was one — is a big proponent of the United Nations’ “Agenda 2030” and its Sustainable Development Goals, which aim to squeeze farmers and ranchers around the world in order to reduce “emissions.” The policies that flow from these goals, such as drastically reducing the use of fertilizer, contributed to the recent economic collapse of Sri Lanka, which triggered mass protests that toppled Sri Lanka’s government and ousted its president earlier this month. 
Last year, Rutte spoke to the World Economic Forum about “transforming food systems and land use” at Davos Agenda Week, announcing that the Netherlands would host something called the “Global Coordinating Secretariat of the World Economic Food Innovation Hubs,” whose job would be to “connect all other food innovation hubs.”

In Davos-speak, that means agricultural production and the supply of food will be centrally controlled by intra-governmental bodies and “stakeholders” consisting mainly of the world’s largest food corporations and international NGOs. Private farms and independent farmers will be a thing of the past, supplanted by global bodies making decisions about how much and what kinds of food are produced. The private sector and the independent farmers will have no place in the future that the UN and the WEF are planning.

British environmental activist George Monbiot: "It's by far and away the greatest cause of habitat destruction, the greatest cause of wildlife loss, the greatest cause of extinction, greatest cause of soil loss, greatest source of fresh water use. It's one of the greatest causes of climate breakdown, bigger than transport."  ...

"We need to act as drastically within that sector as any other sector to prevent the collapse of our life support systems and what that means, above all else, is getting out of livestock farming is really shutting down animal farming altogether, because that has massively disproportionate impacts on the living planet, and we need to switch towards other sources of food plant-based diets which are far more efficient, far lower environmental impacts."

"It's a bit like leaving fossil fuels in the ground unless we do that. We've really got very little chance indeed of preventing this domino effect of system collapse right across systems which basically makes the planet uninhabitable. So eating meat and milk and eggs is an indulgence we cannot afford."
