    banning it is doubly stupid in the face of it not being mass producible to begin with, check the literature

    I’ll be completely honest and say I have never read any of the literature, but having said that there are clearly agricultural interests involved trying to kill it in its crib, why wouldn’t they make fake propaganda about it? Big oil kept climate change off peoples lips for generations.

      The fact that they're preemptively banning it makes me feel that it's impressive enough to be nervous

        Yup. Before this I’ll be honest and say I took everyone here at their word that it was not feasible even without looking into it myself, but this bill made me think “wait a minute”.

            It does feel like it's more a culture war nonce thing, given that the ban is happening in Florida - a state that doesn't even produce oranges any more.
