This was an absolutely incredible book. It has helped me adjust so much. “Tiny Changes. Remarkable Results.”

I came up with a good idea for using the Wish List feature on Amazon. I‘ve decided to make 2 TBR lists. 1 list has books I want to read on Kindle Unlimited and the other list has books that I have to buy because they‘re not on Kindle Unlimited. During the Stuff Your Kindle Day events, if the books are free then I‘ll buy them but if they‘re not free or if I can read them on Kindle Unlimited then I‘ll add them to one of my lists.
Started this about 10 days ago for work. Definitely not my usual.
The history of the next fifty years will be the story of how we deal with--or fail to deal with-- the coming food shortages.
Bananas (continued):
Organics also tend to be grown at higher, drier elevations to somewhat limit pests, which means the bananas need massive irrigation to grow. The result is the food product with the highest chemical and carbon footprint, as well as the highest staff turnovers from death in any industry. Happy eating.
For those of you organic buffs who refuse to eat anything that's been touched with anything artificial, know that a roughly half-mile radius around organic banana plantations is practically nuked with non-organic pesticides and herbicides and fungicides to protect your proclivities.
This was a very interesting book, but I wish that Zeihan would've taken more time to explain exactly WHY the world will be become deglobalized, rather than just treat it as an inevitability.
Readers who enjoyed this will also enjoy the books of George Friedman, as well as $20 Per Gallon by Christopher Steiner. #2025Book20
This is a soft pick for me. I enjoyed the author's writing but agree with other reviewers that it could have been covered in a long essay. In a nutshell -- do fewer things, work at your own pace, and focus on quality.
📸 I liked the section about Jewel passing on a million dollar contract to focus on her growth as a performer first. Hence the picture of her. That dress is bananas! 😂
