What I really meant by “general populace” is the funny people in my phone with strong opinions about everything. For some reason almost everyone IRL cares so little about basically everything, no matter its importance.

Yes, I would surely imagine this is the case, and that if I were to talk to farmers I would have a greater understanding of the subject. In essence, this is my point—that there should be more discussion about this to more inform the general public. My lack of understanding of the topic is representative of the broader tends among the average person. Furthermore, I would imagine them to be even less informed than my already uninformed state due to their lack of interest in the subject.

Is your point that it’s hopeless to discuss it because farmers are unwilling to adopt new practices or because we’ve maxed out and no progress is possible, quickly revealed by talking to any farmer? Or is it that you believe me unworthy to talk about it because I am among the urban majority? It’s unclear from your line of questioning.

I wouldn’t say that the emissions are all from energy use. Cement and steel making both directly emit CO2 (From coke or calcium carbonate), which makes up a significant portion of global emissions.

While switching to plant based food is an obvious course of action which would have drastic benefits, several other methods exist by which agricultural emissions. These include:

• Livestock diet changes to reduce methane production
• More accurate fertilizer application to reduce nitrous oxide production
• Draining rice paddies to reduce production of methane by anaerobic microbes
• No till farming to allow more carbon to be stored in the soil
• Farm equipment electrification
• Crops bred for higher yield or lower resource usage
