Is EU Climate Madness and the Netherlands' War on Farmers Coming to America?
Download MP3Europe is much farther down the climate alarm rabbit hole than the United States is. Specifically, the Netherlands climate goals have come increasingly at the expense of farmers. The policies have ended generations of family farms in one of Europe's most vital breadbasket countries in the name of reducing CO2 and nitrogen emissions to meet EU climate goals. Could it happen in the U.S.? Yes, if we don't carefully rein in Marxism in our schools and growing bureaucracies.
