Farmers Bear Climate Cost While Big Polluters Offload | Perth News

Published 3 weeks ago
Description

Farmers are bearing the brunt of climate change, facing skyrocketing insurance costs and slashed profits—nearly $30,000 a year—while being blamed for emissions they’re actually reducing. A new report slams big fossil fuel companies for avoiding real pollution cuts by buying carbon offsets on farmland, risking food production and treating rural Australia as an environmental dumping ground. The solution? Force polluters to cut emissions at source, protect agricultural land, and align climate policy with food security—so everyone shares the burden fairly without sacrificing the soil that feeds us.
