Befri Jorden

Denmark is failing to transition to sustainable food production systems. Agriculture and especially livestock farming is responsible for almost 27% of Danish greenhouse gas emissions, and 95% of its nitrate emissions. Feasible transition scenarios to fulfill Denmark’s international commitments involve our government immediately downscaling intensive animal farming and abandoning their over-reliance on techno-fixes to instead focus on sustainable long-term solutions. On April 28th, 2023, we joined a city-wide protest in Copenhagen, demanding that Denmark keep its promises of having 30% of its territory as protected natural areas, stop new loans for industrial animal agriculture and finally ban pesticides.
