Gates Ag One: The Recolonisation Of Agriculture
The Biosecurity Myth That Is Destroying Small Farming by Lucile Leclair.
Synopsis: Governments are deciding that small farms are not biosecure against infectious diseases. Despite plentiful evidence that small farms are in fact more safe and more biosecure than factory farms, governments are enacting rules and regulations that are near impossible for small farms with animals outdoors to meet, either cost-effectively or at all. The result is destroying rural and traditional ways of life. Read the full article written by Lucile Leclair at: https://www.independentsciencenews.org/health/the-biosecurity-myth/

Why We Need a Small Farm Future
Synopsis: What would a truly resilient society look like? This article is an excerpt from the new book A Small Farm Future: Making the Case For A Society Built Around Local Economies Self Provisioning Agricultural Diversity and A Shared Earth. The book examines the question of resilience from the points of view of politics, economics, and the physical world, and it challenges both conventional wisdom and standard utopian visions to elaborate on the opportunities and the problems inherent in realising this goal. As Vandana Shiva notes on the cover “Either we have a small farm future, or we face collapse”.
The author is a farmer and former academic and the book is published by Chelsea Green Publishing. Read the full excerpt at: https://www.independentsciencenews.org/commentaries/why-we-need-a-small-farm-future/
Bill Gates’ Global Agenda and How We Can Resist His War on Life
Synopsis: “The coronavirus pandemic and lockdown have revealed even more clearly how we are being reduced to objects to be controlled, with our bodies and minds as the new colonies to be invaded. Empires create colonies, colonies enclose the commons of the indigenous living communities and turn them into sources of raw material to be extracted for profits. This linear, extractive logic is unable to see the intimate relations that sustain life in the natural world. It is blind to diversity, cycles of renewal, values of giving and sharing, and the power and potential of self-organising and mutuality. It is blind to the waste it creates and to the violence it unleashes. The extended coronavirus lockdown has been a lab experiment for a future without humanity.”
