Making it up

Written by  The Hound

This old mutt is unsurprised that the highly paid mouthpieces at the multinational, tax-dodging eco-terrorism group Greenpeace continue making stuff up to fit its anti-farming narrative. 

The latest example followed a recent IPPC report — ‘Climate Change and Land’: the Dutch headquartered lobby group repeated its call for the New Zealand Government to halve the national cow herd and ban synthetic nitrogen fertiliser.

But your old mate and many others note that the IPCC report made no such call. In fact it recommends that low emission meat and dairy products – such as those produced by NZ farmers – are among the answers to addressing global climate change.

The Hound reckons it’s long past time some Kiwi media called out Greenpeace’s lies instead of swallowing and repeating its patently false PR statements.
