It was a great experience talking with people at #farmaid40 about @ewgofficial.bsky.social's Meat and Dairy Label Decoder as well as our work on nitrous oxide emissions from big ag this weekend! And getting to see some of the performers was unreal. @farmaid.org

What an incredible night here at Farm Aid in Minneapolis! For 40 years, this concert has lifted up family farmers and reminded us that food connects us all. Plus I got to introduce the one and only Margo Price.

Governor Waltz introduced 92 year old Willy Nelson and family.
My favourite was Help Me Make It Through the Night. Literally thousands of people attended.

The entire Farm Aid concert was amazing!!

Farm Aid 40 was such an epic show. It felt so good to be in a crowd with so many other people knowing most of us were there for the right reasons, being in community, helping those in need & having a good time. We need this more than ever right now.

We need pundits who can do something harder (or at least very different): Learn and write about what systematic reforms are necessary (and plausible) so that we have at least two parties that consistently nominate candidates who support our constitutional system of law and universal rights.

20.09.2025 19:09 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 45    ๐Ÿ” 13    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 2    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Another concrete example: We need pundits who think about how to defend democracy *in between elections.* We simply no longer have the luxury of only thinking about winning elections and implementing good policy. One of the reasons (not the only one) is, if we don't, then elections won't be free.

This is General Sherman, the worldโ€™s most voluminous tree, estimated to weigh 1,200 metric tonnes. If Sherman were carbon, it would take 8,333,000 of them to equal annual human carbon emissions. We need to stop burning fossil fuels, planting more trees wonโ€™t fix the problem. (I like trees in the proper setting) we need to conserve our forests
