Our farmers face devastating storms like hurricane Fiona, which tore down barns and killed cattle. We have floods and fires right across the country. This is one of the reasons food prices are so high. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"8575807\" data-originallang=\"en\">The government put a price on pollution that works.
