Opioids and Psychedelics for the People!

It is ridiculous that Congress upholds War on Drugs-era barriers on federal research into substances like psilocybin, ibogaine,& MDMA when early results are indicating major promise in treating PTSD, addiction,& more.

I’m trying (again) to lift them so we can pursue the science. https://t.co/e87U3UYhUS

Lack of "Plant-Based" Diets Isn't the Major Problem

A new @foe_us report finds that only 4% of CA school meals are #plantbased & many districts provide no plant-based options. @USDA must provide greater support for healthy, low-carbon #plantbased school meals. See the recommendations: https://t.co/YGYRsLKzIo

Worth Reading?

“Bittman’s “Animal, Vegetable, Junk,” a comprehensive treatise on humanity’s relationship to food, matches our moment.”

What “Sapiens” was to history, and “Capital in the 21st Century” was to Economics, @Bittman’s work is to food and agriculture.🔥https://t.co/VAbmHSQPzJ
