USDA called on to end connections to net zero program P2DNZ
Heartland Impact and Consumers Defense said the program forces ESG rules on farmers and raises food costs for consumers, according to their report.
- Advocacy groups Heartland Impact and Consumers Defense urged the USDA to terminate connections to Pathways to Dairy Net Zero , contending the initiative enforces ESG policies that harm American farmers and increase consumer costs.
- A report titled 'The War on Dairy: Foreign Influence Subverting America's Dairy Sector' claims climate policies like P2DNZ represent globalist attempts to bankrupt small farms, undermining American sovereignty and exceptionalism according to Heartland Institute.
- Samantha Fillmore of Heartland Impact criticized the 30-year emissions goal as a voluntary facade for an 'ESG playbook' that squeezes industries, warning compliance costs fall on family farms and threaten the American food supply chain.
- Consumers Defense executive Sal Nuzzo called for USDA withdrawal, stating it would be "a win for American farmers and consumers," while a USDA spokesman responded that President Trump will not allow foreign bodies to force ESG standards onto producers.
- While Heartland Impact and Consumers Defense acknowledged the Trump administration's "important steps" to remove political agendas from agriculture, they argue P2DNZ remains a critical oversight that continues raising costs for everyday Americans.
