Comment on This is not satire. They UN deleted it from their page just now, but I found two archived versions

Apparently amount of fertiliser exposed to air is higher than their climate goals. They want to reduce fertilizer use, thus landgrabbing farms:

That link helped me to understand what Nitrous oxides used in fertilizer actually do. Seems like it's not a huge problem unless it gets into the atmosphere.
The Dutch gov't's decision to reduce the use of these fertilizers could also have something to do with the fact that much of the world's nitrogen fertilizers are produced in China, Russia and India. I can imagine that there is a shortage of these fertilizers in the western world as nations take sides in the current conflict. So perhaps the government restricting their use in the Netherlands is a way to cover up the fact that the farmers couldn't get fertilizer if they actually needed it, and so preserve the illusion of stability for a while longer. Here's the stats on global fertilizer production, found from a quick Yandex search: https://www.statista.com/statistics/1252656/nitrogen-fertilizer-production-by-country/

Like you said, common sense solution to prevent air exposure would reduce emissions. Only way to reduce 95% is to shutdown farms and not produce food. Dutch govt tried this since 2019 (found old news articles). Only explanation given is climate agenda
Sri Lanka last year banned fertilizers. They got 1/6th the yield - 84% less. All farms failed
One year later. Today they are starving and bankrupt. Military is commanded to shoot protesters

It's nuts how much large-scale farming depends on fertilizers to yield enough for everyone in society. I am curious about whether a failing economy and starvation plays into the hands of the GR agenda, since it seems that economies are being deliberately killed and starvation enabled.

Ah, the age old question. Are our NWO overlords masterminds or idiots ?
My opinion is they are the logical result of Wokeness. Humans are a cancer, so cut off oil and food. Prevent climate change the HARD way, lol
The poorest will starve first, like Africans. White countries can pay for fertilizer/food. Brownies gonna die
Wokes will still claim to be protectors of the poor. Just like they got Ukrainians killed by training neo-nazis or Vaxd people to death
