The REAL reason farmers and truckers are rising up all around the world

Farmers around the world are rising up to protest regulations that are threatening to destroy not just their industry — but the countries they’ve learned to thrive in.

France, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, and Spain have all seen recent protests against these regulations. In France, entire herds of livestock have been led into the city to stop traffic, and manure has been sprayed on government buildings.

“This is not just an American problem,” Glenn Beck comments. “What they’re protesting is about to affect every single citizen on planet Earth.”

The protests are a reaction to the actions of global elites, who allege that they’re trying to save the environment.

One of those elites is John Kerry, who, at the recent AIM for Climate Summit, was adamant that agriculture is a problem for the environment.

“Agriculture contributes about 33% of all emissions of the world,” he told the audience. “Depending a little bit on how you count it, but it’s anywhere from 26% to 33%, and we can’t get to net zero, we don’t get this job done, unless agriculture is front and center as part of the solution.”

“You can’t just continue to both warm the planet while also expecting to feed it. Doesn’t work. So we have to reduce emissions from the food system,” he added.

“I’m not an expert on this, but has anybody considered how many people will go hungry in the race to eliminate 30%?” Glenn asks. “Did they factor in how many ranchers and farmers will be forced into poverty? Have they thought about the ramifications of something that has taken us thousands of years to perfect — to change it in a four-year-period?”
