Petroleum Industry Celebrates Global Fertilizer Day Despite Health Threats and Sustainable Alternatives - Beyond Pesticides Daily News Blog
Earlier this week, on October 13, the fossil fuel industry, commodity crop groups, and their political allies celebrated Global Fertilizer Day: the widespread (and growing) use of petroleum products, including synthetic, nitrogen-based and fossil-fuel derived fertilizers. As a response to industry claims that petrochemical pesticides and fertilizers are critical to ensuring global food security, Beyond Pesticides and a broad coalition are pushing back against toxic chemical dependency and advancing organic land (agricultural and nonagricultural) management as cost-effective, productive, and...

Fossil fertilizers are driving up food prices and fueling the climate crisis.
In Lima, Ohio, Nutrien’s plant released 192 tons of nitrous oxide in 2024, a gas 273x more potent than CO₂.
Agroecology feeds people, not polluters.

On #GlobalFertilizerDay 💀, here's our reminder of the day:
When fertilizer corporations talk about “feeding the world,” they rarely mention the nitrogen pollution left behind. From dead zones in oceans to toxic air near farms, the damage is real. A healthy food system can't be built on poison.

When fossil prices spike, so do food prices.
This isn’t a system designed not to feed people but to extract profit.
Meanwhile farmers are trapped in debt, & ecosystems are paying the price.

#GlobalFertilizerDay 🤔 Should we celebrate?
Did you know that... fertilisers are tied to soaring food prices 🍞💸?
In 2022, as gas prices surged, so did food costs — leaving families skipping meals while fertiliser companies reported record profits.
Time to make farming less reliant on fossil fuels!
