This arrived with my email today, as part of an announcement for a series of virtual talks with more than 50 prominent organic farmers, scientists, and climate activists. Chellie Pingree, quoted above and said to be under consideration for Biden’s secretary of agriculture, is one of the speakers . You can read more about the symposium by following this link, but it’s those data that I found chilling. 12,000 lobbyists! $350 million a year!
