Something also lost in the debate because of the misleading reporting in this video is that this issue has nothing to do with CO2 or climate change.

@trkstatrksta8410 Same thing. The atmosphere is the air.

The nitrogen cuts have nothing to do with net zero emissions or with climate change. This report is very misleading. The nitrogen cuts are to protect what the governments considers nature. Though nitrogen isn't harmful to nature, certain types of vegetation grow better with less nitrogen and the government decided which type of vegetation should be protected per area. It is worth noting that the Netherlands does not have any truly wild nature, so basically they planned the landscape out as if it were one giant garden.

They don't speak the truth actually. They claim this is because of climate change and net zero emissions, but it has nothing to with that, and neither the proponents nor the opponents claim it has anything to do with climate change.
