Trump has turned his rural base into modern welfare queens - @usdagov.bsky.social should be ashamed rather than embracing this insanity. $15B in lost business due to tarrifs raises costs for consumers, bankrupts farmers, and makes the entire world less food secure. This is WASTED & LOST money.

Elon says farming has no impact on climate, but he’s just wrong. Food generates ⅓ of our emissions, more than transportation or electricity. We’re making progress on energy-partly thanks to Elon!-but not on food.

Only at the end does this piece quote @mikegrunwald.bsky.social on Kernza's yield problem.

There’s much to be gleaned from nature, but not necessarily mimicked. This books helps to shift from blind mimicry to ask question “which wisdom can we keep and which can we leave?” It uses an evolutionary perspective to point to areas with higher likelihood of success. Highly recommended reading
