European countries will go to Brussels, agree on some stupid 'emissions' plan, and then ram it through in their own countries with the excuse that "we have to do it because the EU says it".
There's no accountability. They can just do whatever they want.
I don't think this will happen in the US, because even there there is more democratic accountability.
This is why I hate the EU, no accountability and people will just go along and blame "the EU", there is no voting for or out of something for the population.
Check out rumble or bitchute or odysee to see the size of the protests in the Netherlands over this. They have already mobilized the army against their own citizens, and entire towns have been shut down by thousands of farmers in their tractors.
What does the farming lobby look like in the US? I'm not really sure, but I suspect there's some farming megacorps that will have a say. So what will happen is everything will be done in the name of climate to kill their competition.
Speaking as someone from that part of the country:
You dont hear about "Big Farm" (outside of Monsanto) because they are to busy doing real shit. They have more important things to be concerned about, and like most farmers and rural people are usually already on top of conservation efforts and making them work in the way it was originally intended (IE: balancing a need for nature and humanities needs, instead of worshiping Gaia or whatever the eco-nuts do). And in this part of the country, an endorsement from the state Farm Bureau can make or break someones political career.
Which all is to say: What they are doing in the Netherlands would never fly here. Because the second you tried, the Farm Bureau, the ranchers, and all of the relevant corps would just laugh in your face and keep doing their thing. Just like we did when Covid hit.

Why do you think Bill Gates is buying all that Midwestern farmland?
He's just a man. He could get hit by a downburst tomorrow and end up a cinder surrounded by shredded aluminum in one of those fields.

And the global media is steadfastly ignoring it.
Just imagine if they were thousands of farmers with guns.
(they'd all be arrested or killed, and the global media would still ignore it or call them far-right insurrectionists, but just imagine...)
They've already escalated to shooting at unarmed farmers.
Farmers are responding by mobilising tank collectors. https://twitter.com/TheRealKeean/status/1544465282957189120?t=2zU1CxgmPwEPEtlS_0A7iw&s=09

Ireland already is doing similar. This is EU bullshit.
Here's a comment of someone talking about Nature2000, from a previous thread on this.
