I was recently at Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh, where the management had actually managed to politicize a Spring Flower Show with a display on Cuba and how we should emulate them because everything is so much more green and sustainable there since there are no American Pig Capitalists mucking the place up.
Fun Display Factoid: Cuba is a world leader in organic farming methods. This is because the Soviet Union collapsed, leaving them without a source of fertilizer. How lucky for them!!
Flew from Miami to Costa Rica. Flew over Cuba at night. Not quite as dark as North Korea, but there weren’t a lot of lights on. So they’ve got that low carbon emissions thing going for them.
