The <strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/opinion\/editorials\/climate-cops-coming-for-your-burger\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Examiner<\/a><\/strong> has the story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The U.N.&#8217;s Food and Agriculture Organization is releasing its first \u201cglobal food systems road map\u201d at COP28, a document designed to reduce meat consumption in wealthy countries such as the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/united-states\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">United States<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCountries are realizing now at least that they have to include food systems within [their climate plans],\u201d said Raphael Podselver, ProVeg International\u2019s director of U.N. affairs. \u201cThere is still a lack of connection with the key topic, which is of course livestock, and I would say the rebalancing of protein intake between the [global] north and the [global] south.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In other words, the Marxists who run the U.N. and its nongovernmental organization clients want to redistribute your hamburgers to poorer countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The document is nonbinding, but the same international banking cartels that are forcing disinvestment from domestic energy production have their sights set on defunding American meat producers as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;The failure of leading meat and dairy companies to reduce emissions underlines the urgent need for more policy focus on the food and agriculture sector,&#8221; FAIRR Initiative Chairman Jeremy Coller said in a statement. &#8220;Investors hope the first-ever publication of a food and agriculture road map at COP28 this month will catalyze the transition to 1.5 degrees and a more sustainable food system.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">American farmers would rather the U.N. and its wealthy international investors butt out. \u201cRegulating producers out of business in the U.S. will not effectively address climate change, but export production to foreign countries with hostile regimes and worse emissions profiles while harming food security and affordability,\u201d House Agriculture Committee Chairman Glenn Thompson (R-PA) said in a statement. \u201cSimply put, the world needs American farmers and ranchers more than the UN.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thompson is right. Globally, agriculture contributes a third of all carbon emissions. But in the U.S., it&#8217;s just 10%. American farmers are efficient at delivering the meat consumers want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Taking meat off your dinner table is not the only thing U.N. bureaucrats are plotting in Dubai. John Kerry, the special presidential envoy for climate, signed the U.S. into something called the Powering Past Coal Alliance, which commits the U.S. to build no new coal power plants and to phase out existing ones. Again, the agreement is not binding, but don&#8217;t be lulled by that. The goal is to cut coal emissions to zero by 2035. Since just under 20% of electricity in the U.S. comes from coal, and President Joe Biden is only looking to increase electricity consumption through electric vehicle mandates, that goal will not be reached. But technical impracticality never slowed climate cultists before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Biden administration also announced new methane regulations for the oil industry in Dubai that will hit small producers, concentrating the oil sector while raising energy prices for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Read the full story <strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/opinion\/editorials\/climate-cops-coming-for-your-burger\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In other words, the Marxists who run the U.N. and its nongovernmental organization clients want to redistribute your hamburgers to poorer countries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":121246920,"featured_media":290477,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_crdt_document":"","advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"In other words, the Marxists who run the U.N. and its nongovernmental organization clients want to redistribute your hamburgers to poorer countries.","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[1],"tags":[691818444,691818056,691818260,691819090,691818760],"class_list":{"0":"post-290413","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"hentry","7":"category-uncategorized","8":"tag-agriculture","9":"tag-climate-change","10":"tag-cop28","11":"tag-john-kerry","12":"tag-united-nations","14":"fallback-thumbnail"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/climatescience.press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/0climate-positive-burger-lead-1020x549-1.jpg?fit=1020%2C549&ssl=1","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/paxLW1-1dy5","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":289482,"url":"https:\/\/climatescience.press\/?p=289482","url_meta":{"origin":290413,"position":0},"title":"Climate Change Roundtable: Cops &amp; Robbers pt.
