The log files of my blog showed this incoming link to my recent post on Agriculture is Single Most Important Contributer to Climate Change. I think it’s a really interesting look at how many farmers feel about agriculture and climate change — and me!
More than once I’ve found myself in a field or farm somewhere chatting with a farmer and thinking we just really didn’t have anything in common. Often looking at the food they were growing and thinking I really wouldn’t want to eat that after seeing all the chemicals they were spraying on it.
I suppose what I said in the earlier post could have been considered an attack on farmers themselves, but I really didn’t mean it that way.
In fact I’m very pleased farmers of all kinds may be reading this blog, and even if we seem to be living in different worlds, I would very much like to hear what you think. If you’re a farmer, I hope you will feel free to leave comments you like here, or post them elsewhere on the Internet. Whatever your opinions are on what I write here, as long as they are kept reasonably civil, will be welcome and eagerly read by me. I think others would be interested in hearing from you too.
If you have something to say to me, that’s private or not directly related to a post here, I hope you’ll send me a private email. I’d like to hear from you personally too. See the contact link on the front page of this blog for my email address.
