Thanks Laura! I'll tune in tomorrow. I've been thinking a lot about cities and the fact that they'll house 70% of humanity by 2050. Lots of potential material as I look ahead to Season II of The Food Principle. lnkd.in/gry2KQeB

While each episode of The Food Principle has been great, Part 3: Hills, Hollers & Healing deserves a special shout-out.

The great American poet Wallace Stevens wrote: “After the final no there comes a yes. And on that yes the future world depends.” Today, the US finally said yes to climate action.

34 years and 40 days ago, Jim Hansen broke the news of global warming to the U.S. Senate.

Such thanks to all of you, and on to the next battles

Average list price for a unit of insulin:
Australia: $6.94
UK: $7.52
France: $9.08
Germany: $11

Japan: $14.40
United States $98.70
This is what happens when Big Pharma buys off a country’s political system.
None of this is acceptable. It has to change.

Joe Biden should definitely declare a climate emergency; Hillary Clinton was going to in 2017. It's just common sense billmckibben.substack.com/p/…

Excited to see my byline in @TIME (twice) today. Wrote about one of my favorite places: Japan's revived Setouchi Islands and the world's longest suspension bridge in the Czech Republic (COVER image).
Thanks to my TIME editors @brekkefletch and @jenniduggan.
