   The current U.S. dietary guidelines for americans are quite sound but I am the only person I know who listens to them.

   Honestly I would love the US to stop being the biggest spender in so many categories, I just don't think anyone else is really poised to take that spot other than China, which I find even more troubling.

   I think it would be interesting to study the effect in sports that have no restrictions on who gets what number. Like (I think) basketball.

   Additional searches above your tier are not expensive, 1.5 cents I believe. And there is an unlimited tier.

   Understandable. Hope I didn't come off as rude there, I didn't mean to.

   I do try and think it's important to be a good representative of bicyclists when I am on my bike. Most drivers seem to respect that and pay me back in kind.

    I think the incentives are more aligned than you think. Healthy land is productive land. Look at the adoption of no-till farming, cover cropping, crop rotation, etc. Plus inputs like fertilizer and pesticide is expensive. I think a lot more

    On the other hand, it's easy to teach a few large farmers best practices from ag and soil science. The more decentralized agriculture becomes, the more individuals have to educate themselves. Do you trust your next door neighbors to be

    I'll take a stab even though I don't really have an overall opinion on the issue. It was ok then because we weren't facing a climate crisis due to carbon cycle disruption then. Also, wild bison are different from domesticated

    I think it's a standard for news headlines to omit linking verbs like 'are'.

    Isn't centralized agriculture more efficient on a calories-per-acre basis? You even say that you can't raise as many cattle as industrial cattle production. Also, the more people we can feed with land in places like the US Midwest

    Yeah, I've ridden on country roads with huge wide shoulders, and stayed right next to where the cars are due to the debris. Clearing bike paths/shoulders of debris would make a real difference in safety while bicycling.

    I believe that people seeing official city employees riding bicycles and cleaning bike lanes would go a long way in getting people to see bicyclists as legitimate road users.

    Everyone always says this but I’ve never heard it from an actual evolutionary biologist. Some genes evolve faster than others; in fact, some genes have themselves evolved to be able to evolve faster.

    I think bhouston is talking more about poisoniing one’s own body with microplastics, whereas you’re talking about polluting the environment.

    Serious question: could you selectively block invisible light on the way in and *visible• light on the way out? Because that to me would be an awesome window.
