The European Union has caved in to angry protests from farmers, cutting its target to scrap specific agricultural emissions which formed part of the bloc’s net zero drive.

A demand to reduce nitrogen, methane and other emissions linked to farming by almost a third has been removed from a wider Brussels plan to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 90 per cent by 2040.

    As if that stopped then from implementing harmful laws. Remember article 10, requiring digital upload filters.

      That was 13 now 11 and yes. I quite literally want to see Voss get cancer (in a metaphorical way) because thats not the only such law this asshole pushed.

      Edit:

      13 now 17

      11 is about links.

        Article 13 actually changed it’s identity to article 17. Article 11 was a stupid link tax, if memory serves

          They shuffled the Playlist of shit so fuck em for that as well, especially because they did that to counter protests.
