Michelle Pfeiffer takes a heroic stand against Bill Gates regarding the use of Apeel. Promoted by America’s favorite super-villain as a way to preserve organic fruits and vegetables, Apeel is really a chemical used to make tired old produce look appetizing. Gates is a nightmare.

The approval of Apeel's Organipeel coating for organic produce highlights systemic failures in USDA oversight. While citric acid comprises 0.66% of the formula, the remaining 99.34% remains undisclosed—a blatant violation of organic transparency principles. This mirrors broader issues exposed in bills like the Organic Science and Research Investment Act, where bureaucratic loopholes allow synthetic additives to infiltrate certified organic systems.
The OMRI's rubber-stamp approval without full ingredient disclosure undermines consumer trust and demonstrates regulatory capture by corporate interests. Taxpayers fund these compromised certification processes while agribusiness profits from eroded standards.
Real organic integrity requires ruthless accountability, not chemical-laden shortcuts disguised as innovation.

If you're worried about ticks, put up an owl box.
The animal driving most Lyme disease in the eastern US is the white-footed mouse. Ticks that feed on them are far more likely to come away infected than ticks that feed on other animals. The bigger the local mouse population, the worse the next year's tick year.
A single barred owl pair raising chicks can take hundreds of rodents in a breeding season. Owls also don't carry Lyme. The bacterium can't survive their digestive tract, so an owl that eats an infected mouse is a dead end for the disease.
Researchers at the Cary Institute, the leading lab on Lyme ecology, have been explicit about this: "Landscapes that support predators have reduced Lyme disease risk."
One owl box on its own isn't going to fix a tick year. But a yard with owls, foxes, bobcats, and weasels in it has fewer mice, and a yard with fewer mice has fewer infected ticks.
If you have woods or fields nearby, a properly sized barn owl or screech owl box (different species, different ...
