The cow in the room: why is no one talking about farming at Cop26?
- 248ff 5y agoIt's good to see livestock and chemical use mentioned. But what about the other cow in the agricultural room ? Reckless farming practice/expansions in developing countries, such as: 1. In south-east asia insane amounts of farmland is burned seasonally (to prepare for the next seasonal crop). 2. Burning of forests/jungle in order to extract some exotic mushrooms. 3. Burning jungle in order to make space for palm-oil farms.
