People still aren't getting it, but the sheep (who are soon to have lambs) and I don't mind. We can play the long game. After all, we've been around for millenia, we shepherds and our sheep.
It may take years but sooner or later we'll figure out that sheep reduce climate emissions from grass mowing drastically. And that mowing is a significant source of emissions that is well worth being reduced.
And the sheep will have their day. And we will relearn to eat lamb chops and perhaps even haggis.
