The EU passed new Climate Change "Nitrogen" Rules. The government admits the rules will put about 30% of their farmers out of business (at first). The farmers are blockading roads, protesting, and even chasing off the police. Netherlands Fishermen are joining in, knowing they will also be decimated by the same EU Climate Change Rules.

My parents had a 3/4 acre pond in what would have been back yard. Long ago, I'd attach a rock as a weight and throw a lit M80 into the water, those green fuses were water resistant. It would make a muffled boom and hundreds of dead bull frog tadpoles would float to the surface, to be eaten by a variety of other animals.
