I've done a lot of highway driving around the US and CAFOs are probably the worst part of it. They are depressing to look at, and you can often smell them miles before you see them. Central California, all of Nebraska, and Northern Indiana are three places that stand out in my mind for having outrageous "density" of abhorrent-smelling places.
- alexpotato 4y agoI was born with no sense of smell and have worked in tech relate fields for the past 15 years. I used to joke that senior tech role at Waste Management would be an efficient pairing but the CAFO angle was unknown to me before this. PS HN being HN, I realize that even if I can't smell, my clothes etc might acquire an odor from being in smelly places.
