Irish farmers are pushing back against a proposal by the government to cull hundreds of thousands of cows in hopes of meeting their commitment to becoming climate neutral.
A report by the Irish Department of Agriculture outlined how 200,000 cows could be killed over the next three years to meet carbon targets. The plan would reportedly come at a cost of around 600 million euros to taxpayers, with the document indicating that 5,000 euros per cow would be offered as compensation.
The country’s Environmental Protection Agency said that the agriculture industry was creating nearly 40 percent of the greenhouse gas emissions there, and much of it stems from the methane in livestock and the use of nitrogen fertilizer. The country has committed to reducing its agricultural emissions by 25 percent by the year 2030.
They are calling the plan a “dairy reduction scheme,” but the result is the senseless slaughter of hundreds of thousands of animals in the name of somehow helping the environment.
The cull would entail killing 65,000 cows per year over the next three years, reducing the country’s overall dairy herd by 10 percent. It is being positioned as a potential “retirement exit scheme” for aging farmers.
Farmers believe cattle culling will backfire
The president of the Irish Farmers’ Association, Tim Cullinan, said that the plan would only serve to increase farmers’ mistrust in the government and will not have the intended environmental aims.
He said: “Reducing dairy or beef production in Ireland will also lead to ‘carbon leakage’ with production moving to other countries with a higher carbon footprint. This is likely to increase global warming rather than reducing it.”
Irish Creamery Milk Suppliers Association President Pat McCormack believes that the focus should be on other sectors when it comes to helping the environment. He said: “We’re the one industry with a significant roadmap, and, to be quite honest with you, our herd isn’t any larger than it was 25 to 30 years ago. Can the same be said for the transport industry, can the same be said for the aviation industry?”
He added that any culling that takes place needs to be done on a voluntary basis. McCormack said that farmers would be willing to do their part to help preserve the environment, but that forcing the issue is not a solution.
Other critics of the plan fear that the move could have a major effect on the country that is not unlike what happened during the potato famine. Australian geologist Ian Plimer said that the move would “only end in disaster.”
“The Irish know about this from the potato famine. A third of their population died, a third emigrated, and the same thing will happen. They will lose productive people from Ireland, and they’ll go somewhere else,” he said.
Elon Musk has also weighed in on the proposal, tweeting in reply to an editorial wondering if American herds would soon follow suit: “This really needs to stop. Killing some cows doesn’t matter for climate change.”
Could eating meat be banned soon?
Animal meat has long been a target of environmentalists and governments looking to exert more power. Frankenfoods like Beyond Meat are being pushed on the masses, and tactics such as carbon taxes, agricultural subsidies and tax schemes are being used to limit the availability of meat. Some have even called for meat consumption to be banned.
Microsoft founder Bill Gates has said that he believes all wealthy nations should switch to 100 percent synthetic beef, and he has provided financial backing for meat alternative brands like Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat.
Synthetic meats are often made using genetic modification, and their long-term effects on human life are not known. Lab-grown meats also fall short when it comes to nutrition, with many options lacking protein and other important nutrients.

Wrong! We the indigenous true Irish people were never consulted on this or any social engineering issue we have had to endure these past thirty years. Like almost every other “western” nation, Ireland is run by criminal psychopaths who are controlled by the ((( you know who’s ))), are traitors and unanswerable to the Irish People.
IF the Irish had any fkin sense.. they’d start “culling” the politicians.
Ditto ZOGUK & EUSSR.
btw In case you’re wondering where that “Champion Of Irish Freedom” Gerry IRA Adams is when he’s needed… last I heard, he’s living comfortably – VERY comfortably! – on the proceeds of his ‘slum-landlord monopoly’ operation… stacking Turd Whirled “immigrants” in like sardines – the more thd merrier… the native Irish be damned!
ZIO/US/UK inflicted NORDSTREAM spills
releasing DAYLY billions of cow + human farts !
MAKE ZIO/US/UK pay for it !
Here’s what an intelligent person would do:
Give the Six Hundred Million to the Irish Tax Payer (afterall, it is their money) so that they can head to the nearest Butcher Shop and purchase a few ounces of freshly ground Burger (the cheap stuff) or a Sliver of Steak—-(more of a Sliver than steak):
That should get rid of 200,000 head of cattle real quick:
And remember, whilst you are wiping the juice off the frying pan with a bit of stale crust—-you can rest assured that those haughty Irish Politicians are enjoying a juicy—-full two inch thick—-‘T’-bone or Filet Mignon in the Leinster House Restaurant:
[I hear the Roast Beef is really good—-and the Wine list extensive:]
Huh! and you’ll never guess who’s paying for all of it:
If you ask me—-it’s not the Cows we should be Culling:
Obviously, the culling that really needs to happen to save the world certainly isn’t cows, it’s the traitors in governments and the rabid psychos like Gates and Schwab and the Rothschilds.
Why is this such a big deal when well over 300,000 cows are murdered every single day in this hell world?
Of course most of these farmers are responsible for the toxic filth commonly termed ‘food’ nowadays…
and now that the state no longer fills their pockets with your tribute to Mammon(taxes) and has turned the cross hairs on them..
they want you all to support them…because all of a sudden they are the front-line to the not so great re-setters…
because with out their vaccinated antibiotic and chemical laced products you will all die (quicker)…
Still they can bring down the govern-ment as they have in Holland..
So perhaps they should stick to shoveling shit on the shits in state orifice…
Something they are actually good at..that doesn’t ‘cost’ us anything…
Like all the West, they’ll cry, yell, holler, cuss but they will do as they’re told.
When the shtf Aryland needs these cows, and they know it.
The conservatives in Ireland like everywhere else will continue to be “shocked” and “outraged” knowing that the only relationship between cow farts and global warming is the proximity of the source to bovine excrement. However, they can be trusted to do absolutely nothing, and will continue to rely on the integrity of their rigged electoral and voting systems, where even if the issue was allowed to become an election issue, and the systems they continue to trust in were not so corrupt, most of the people are so brainwashed they would stand behind the insane government measures. If all of the farmers in Ireland were to go on strike, the media and the opposition parties would have to deal with the issue and the facts, and the nation would quickly wake up to the folly of the lying bastards who control their governments, for truth and justice would reign over the land.
I’ve never had to sit in a room full of farting cows so I don’t know how unpleasant that might be, but I do know a world without steak, burgers, mincemeat, sausages, oxtail soup, beef crisps, thick gravy and full-fat milk is somewhere most people wouldn’t want to live.
#UNITEWHITE
MAKE IT HAPPEN PEOPLE.
not only irish : all western people have
to slaughter their politicians 95 % !
k–the Satanists sometimes have a particular culling for a particular political aim, with rituals making it explicit about who is receiving what and what the bargain is
