minus-squarelvysaur [he/him]hexbear1·4 years ago I got into an argument on reddit about how Cuba handles food insecurity better than the US The reason is that, other than the hundreds of US/euro embargoes, Cuba also has 3x the population density of the US. That's it, has nothing to do with the US "handling it better". link
minus-squareMonarchLabsOne [he/him]hexbear1·4 years agoMy point is that they manage to feed their citizens better than we do, and a lot of their food is produced with polyculture urban gardening. It's pretty extraordinary. link
