They can shove their ESG crap straight up their asses. And this is a huge reason why I've primarily & carefully invested in PM's rather than stocks, bonds, and fiat Bullshit. It is also why we own everything, no loans, no credit, and ZERO debt. I want to be & stay as disconnected as I possibly can. Their schemes, scams, and waste of resources have little to no impact on me and mine.

A lot of this is European stuff. Especially when it come to the shipping industry. Don't get it at all but it is what it is. Europe has gone nuts with this. Could be a money grab???????????

Yes, I understand that it is a European thing. But here they call it DEI,........same difference.

Money, power, and control. Every time.


The people who fuck children do not care about the climate.
 
Let's check in on Keith, whose methane output is contributing to the collapse of the global climate.

6:00am - Keith woke up in a field in Devon. The field is on a 30-degree slope with clay soil and drainage that has defeated two generations of agricultural consultants. Keith eats the bramble, thistle, dock, and rush. These are the things no other animal on this farm will eat. These are also the invasive scrub species that would otherwise compromise the field's productivity.

Keith is not thinking about this. Keith is thinking about the north section of bramble he didn't finish yesterday.

7:00am - Keith produced some methane. It came from his rumen, where specialised microorganisms convert lignified plant matter into usable nutrition via fermentation. The methane is biogenic. It came from carbon that was in the atmosphere, which the plants captured via photosynthesis, which Keith ate. The methane will return to the atmosphere and break down in twelve years into CO2 and water vapour. The CO2 will be absorbed by the next generation of bramble. Keith will eat the next generation of bramble.

Keith has been doing this on a loop.

The loop has no net emissions.

The loop has been running since goats were domesticated ten thousand years ago.

8:00am - Keith escaped into the road. This was unrelated to the methane situation. This was about the gate.

8:11am - Keith was back in the field. He had eaten Steve's bindweed. He came back through Dave's gate and went directly to the bramble.

9:00am - Keith ate bramble for two hours. Bramble is an invasive scrub species that outcompetes wildflowers, reduces biodiversity, and creates dense monoculture thicket. Keith has no conservation qualifications. Keith has a rumen and a complete indifference to thorns and has been doing this since Tuesday.

2:00pm - Dave counted the clearance. North section: finished. East hedge line: 60% clear. Wet corner: improved. Dave has been meaning to deal with all of this since spring. Keith has dealt with all of it.

Dave looked at the gate.
Dave looked at Keith.
Dave wrote in the log: "Net outcome: exceptional. Gate situation: ongoing."

Keith is by the gate.
Keith is thinking.

The climate is fine.

The gate is the issue.
