Thanks for sharing this fascinating (and frustrating) story. I had no idea about these dynamics and now am looking suspiciously at raised beds. Love the term impermaculture, even though I hate what it means

Thank you for sharing this! I will look it up. (Always on the hunt for compelling graphic work, both because I love it myself but also because it tends to resonate with students like almost nothing else)

Thanks for sharing this rant. A shame that you (we) have to have the same arguments and defend the same territory again and again. You’d think most of these basic tenets were long settled, but worshipping at the Temple of Quantitative Truth is pretty deeply ingrained

I missed this - had no idea it was going on. Thank you for spreading the word, and - oh my goodness - I am so saddened by all of this

Thanks for flagging this!

I second what @mhoussayh.cpesr.fr said. Last year had "farewell" vibes. Also, crossing the border felt similar to crossing into Russia and Belarus, back when things started getting worse over there. Too strange.

Maybe again in a couple years, if the trajectory changes. Not optimistic, but maybe?
