It’s frustrating to watch interviews like the one between the @thedailyshow.com’s Jon Stewart & @elizkolbert.bsky.social tonight, suggesting we don’t know the solutions to the #ClimateCrisis, & better solutions aren’t “politically viable.” WE KNOW THE SOLUTIONS, AND ONLY CORRUPTION MAKES THEM HARD.

Science can create more accurate and effective tools, but if it costs too much to make them, you'll either have to settle for less effective ones, sacrifice other things you care about, or find ways to raise more money than you currently have.

Fantastic video from Shawn Grows:
This film traces how humanity’s craving for sweetness reshaped the world. From ancient India’s first crystallized sugar to the rise of Caribbean plantations & the birth of global empires, sugar transformed from a rare luxury into an addiction that fueled revolution.

The book Dark PR includes reporting on the modern sugar economy (among other corporate crimes). Highly recommended.
