Why does this Öko-Institut care about reducing emissions in farming?

https://mastodon.social/@oekoinstitut/111782856110691806

According to https://www.mdr.de/wissen/deutschland-top-fuenf-klima-emissionen-100.html emissions of farming is negligible. Even if they change anything, probably with great effort, they wouldn't change anything. They are the least who need to care.

Death by 1000 paper cuts. If everyone looks at their sector and says they are irrelevant in the broader picture, then no one will change.

Even the worst polluters can rationalise themselves with just a little mental gymnastics.
