Misguided and a Little Uppity

Hello there everybody. Well, some extreme environmental groups are at it again. They’re telling anyone who will listen that large corporate farms are depleting natural resources.

They claim wasteful and inefficient ag practices are forcing agribusiness to exploit vast stretches of land. These misguided groups are complaining that wildlife habitat and wetlands are being turned in to crops. Hey, isn’t “crops” another word for food! In other words, they’re complaining some wild animal’s temporary resting place or watering hole, is being turned in to FOOD! It sounds a little different when you say it that way, doesn’t it.

Many of these radical environmentalists are not only misguided, I believe they’re a little uppity as well. I’ve read some of their bios. They have children with names like Gunther and Charming. Their kids are never named Sam or Mary. Here’s just one vague, and a bit “out-there” position taken by some extreme environmental organizations. They claim because of agricultural runoff 60% of America’s rivers and streams are, and I quote, “impaired”. Impaired? What the heck does that mean! Impaired compared to what, compared to when?

I believe these extreme environmental advocates must have something missing in their lives that drives them to overly mother the environment the way they do. I believe nature ultimately always takes care of itself.

You can always reach me by email by simply going to my web site at farmviewradio.com. That’s it for now. Until next time, always remember, no farms, no food! So long.
