We’ve all seen this “question” thrown around. It’s a smear disguised as an inquiry meant to present climate activists and climate-conscious people as trying to take jobs away from “hard working” farmers. When talking about climate issues with people, this one of the most common responses I get. But here’s the thing: I know it’s a bullshit question but I don’t how to explain why it’s a bullshit question. Any help? Thanks in advance.
I am a farmer and I believe in climate change; I come from 5 generations of farmers.
I know we have to take care of the planet for all our sakes.
Tell them you want to help them to keep being able to farm for years to come. It’s not fight you, it’s work with and help you?
