The crazies are telling you what they want, if only people would listen
In a new book, Nicola Twilley says we need to rethink the impact refrigeration is having on the planet.
“You really don't need to have a tomato in December," Twilley says on this week's Zero podcast. "Just don't do it." https://t.co/gXx0TnQMCH

Who the heck puts tomatoes in the fridge, unless you’ve sliced one and are saving the rest for later? From the link
The “cold chain” that delivers our food is inconspicuous but vast. The US alone boasts around 5.5 million cubic feet of refrigerated space (that’s 150 Empire State Buildings!) and three-quarters of the average American plate has spent some time in a commercial fridge. Now, the developing world is catching up.
Nicola Twilley, author of Frostbite: How Refrigeration Changed Our Food, Our Planet, and Ourselves, says this expansion of the world’s “distributed winter” has wide-ranging climate implications.
What Twilley is primarily yammering about is large scale refrigeration for shipping, which isn’t just from in your state or from across the country, but, from around the world, which, as you can guess, is Bad for ‘climate change’, hence, the use of refrigeration must be dramatically be decreased. And, who would implement this? Government force, of course!
It’s a very long interview with Twilley at the link.
