Food waste fuels methane emissions. When food ends up in landfills, it breaks down and releases methane, a powerful greenhouse gas that drives global warming. #StopFoodLossWaste can help cut methane emissions while saving food, money and valuable resources. Today is #FLWDay: bit.ly/4ACt06r

Well, I for one am an economist who supports rent controls! Here’s why 🧵: Markets only work well if: -buyers & sellers have roughly equal power -producers respond to price signals & expand supply in response to scarcity -buyers can walk away if prices get too high

This is a terrible idea. We are in a climate crisis which is affecting all our daily lives. Also, most cities and towns are blighted by too many motor vehicles causing noise and pollution, and making walking less safe and cycling unsafe. Making driving cheaper isn't a solution to any of this.
