Tim Moore<p>The <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/acorns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>acorns</span></a> are falling by the hundreds from the tree just outside the doorway while I sit on the couch with phone in front of me this evening. I hear them hit the roof every minute or so with a clunk then the tumbling sound down the slope and then a quiet thunk as they hit the deck outside. For me this poses an invitation for free food. But what is free anyway? It does require work, gathering them up, separating the wormy ones out, drying, shelling, grinding and leaching out the tannic acid to make them palatable. And time. A good bit of time. But really not as much time as we surf the Internet. And yet when you add up all the calories expended in this process, you end up ahead. The proof is how the native populations fed themselves for thousands of years off these oak nuts. Why aren't these nuts which are packed with nutrition left on the ground in our parks and wild areas and not harvested for our bread? Are there no machines to help with the process? Instead we use wheat of lesser nutritional value, often grown with water pumped from fossil <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/aqueducts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>aqueducts</span></a>, fertilized with <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/fossil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fossil</span></a> nitrogen pumped out of the ground in the form of natural <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/gas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gas</span></a> and then ground and hauled to our kitchens using <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/fossilfuels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fossilfuels</span></a> to power tons of metal vehicles. How is this cheaper than gathering and processing acorns outside our doors?

We have chosen the net of calories put in to be greater than the calories we get into our bodies. And yet it is more profitable to get your bread makings from halfway around the world than gather acorns for your family and local community, work long hours to make the money to pay for not just that flour but the high rents, mortages and the weighty cars to get to the store to work, to pay the farmers, processors, truck drivers, grocers and the shareholders who financed the whole operation. We now don't have the time anymore to gather acorns, let alone make bread. Is it really the time or the desire. I think if you are going to fight climate change you have to get into the roots of why we have made such a complex system that needs so many inputs to get a simple necessity that otherwise is outside your door.<br><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/thegreatsimplification" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thegreatsimplification</span></a></p>
