Almost too hot to eat lunch outside. pesos

I don’t know why he doesn’t post this to his own site. Seems to me airbnb and Medium share certain similarities

Great fun chatting with Amalia Sacchi for @festletteratura about food, agriculture and the climate crisis, although ashamed not to be able to do it in Italian. It will be streamed on 8 September at 14:10 CEST.

There’s just one problem with blaming Monsanto for “the public’s distrust of GMOs” and that is that the majority of the public, at least in the US, do not distrust GMOs but willingly eat it at every opportunity. For those that do mistrust GMOs, yes, I too would blame Monsanto.

OK, I’ve had time to think about this and to do something, and I guess there’s even a chance it could catch on, if @arush and @ladyhope are agreeable.
