It seemed a crazy idea at the time: circular, self-contained, sustainable, idealistic, waste of money, bound to fail and all that. I increasingly feel it may not have been such a bad idea after all 🙄

It's as if the Trump regime wanted to make more people go hungry, attacking farmers from every angle, stealing their workforce, making climate disruption worse by stopping the installation of renewables & forcing coal plants to stay open, and dramatically increasing the cost of petrol and fertilizer.
