AFP should know by now that “scientists say” means absolutely nothing anymore. I remember presidential candidate Hillary Clinton throwing it in Donald Trump’s face by boldly stating, “I believe in science” — which means what? If someone in a white lab coat says something, you automatically believe it? Not to mention all of those stupid yard signs that say, “In this home, we believe in science.” Scientists recently claimed that the coronavirus didn’t come from a lab leak but rather from raccoon dogs. Children are taught that doctors “guess” a baby’s sex when it’s born and sometimes get it wrong. I survived the global cooling that was supposed to happen during my lifetime.
Now scientists say that if we’re serious about reducing climate change, we need to look at … rice.
VIDEO: Rice is to blame for around 10 percent of global emissions of methane, a gas that over two decades, traps about 80 times as much heat as carbon dioxide. Scientists say that if the world wants to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, rice cannot be ignored. pic.twitter.com/46GgkaGPgK

So we’re supposed to give up meat because cows give off methane. And we’re supposed to give up rice?
If the alternative to eating rice is bugs and meat grown in a petri dish, then bring on the greenhouse gasses.

You folks are nothing but a death cult. You won’t be happy until the Earth is driven to world war from starvation, inflation, and lost jobs. Not a single “scientist” listed here has stopped eating rice… or heating / cooling their home, or flying to their next conference.

Climate cultists will not be happy until most people starve to death.

The places where rice grows aren't deserts. They've always had plants that release methane when they decompose.

The most readily available grain worldwide to feed impoverished civilizations. I feel like there are some dots to connect here. https://t.co/1hCgiIb0B8

They literally want to kill people to save the planet… but who would be left to enjoy it?

So much of this seems to have been printed in the basement of Zero Population Growth's headquarters.

Everyone stop eating and breathing!

I’m sure Asia will just be cool with not eating rice anymore. Not like it’s a staple over there or anything.

In reality the goal is depopulation. Everything they go after is related to food production.

It is pretty simple. Population reduction is the end goal.

Yep.
Biden 2024: No cows. No rice. No stoves. Eat bugs.

Might as well have them fast forward to the part where it’s argued and demanded the best thing for the planet is to have zero humans on it.

I’ve seen people say that. Apparently, without human beings, the world is in perfect balance and the climate never changes — the earth would be at its ideal temperature … whatever that is … not sure how you measure that.
