Depending on what I’ve read either the water usage amounts are similar or almond milk requires tons more water, while most agree that CO2 emission is less for almonds.

I think it comes down to what % almonds there are per liter of almond milk. If the amount is like that of homemade almond milk, almond milk probably requires far more water. In a much more efficient commercial process with much less almonds in there (really, 0.1%?) that’s when almonds win water amounts.

I was exaggerating but yeah its like 2%. I buy Blue Diamond unsweetened vanilla myself since its the cheapest and tastiest compared to other brands like Lucerne or Trader Joes or that awful Soy Dream(?) or Silk brand. I've tried Calif Farms and it's pretty good, but 2x the price and it may have more than 2% but I can't really tell

I just drink soy. I'm not sure what the environmental effects of that are like, but probably better than dairy or almond.

I think Newsom has actually been pretty vocal in his support: http://capitolweekly.net/nurses-backed-newsom-ramp-fight-universal-health-care/

I mean he seems like a robot but some robots are not evil, right?
IIRC he also posted a pretty sweet op-ed on housing a little while back.

Fake edit: https://medium.com/@GavinNewsom/the-california-dream-starts-at-home-9dbb38c51cae

I'd love to see him collaborate with Weiner on a housing bill that he'd throw his weight behind (as Governor).

Also FWIW another article I read pointed out that most companies meant to be impacted by this (ie: Uber, Door Dash, other "gig" companies) probably won't care because they make their workers sign forced arbitration contracts so even if they completely flaunt the law they won't face a class action. Probably just keep on trucking and eat the few arbitration cases.

Don't remind me about Prop 8. I am a former Mormon and at the time I was living with my parents and was an absolutely depressed unemployed wreck of a human-being and my mom went in hard campaigning for Prop 8 it lead to some heated arguments.

In case you missed that second one:

quote:

Don J. Grundmann | NO PARTY PREFERENCE

A Campaign for Sanity. There is no such thing as “transgender.” It does not exist. What does exist are broken people who pretend to be the opposite sex and even mutilate themselves in the attempt. In our constitutional Republic we are free to be psychotic as long as we do not hurt ourselves or others but we have no right to lie to children and teach them that this mental, emotional, and spiritual pathology/sickness is normal, natural, or healthy in the slightest possible way. To do so is a very sick attack upon children and a form of child molestation. There is a massive Social Engineering campaign to normalize the soul pathology and social sickness of “transgenderism.” So-called “transgender” children are being used as weapons to attack and destroy normal/healthy children. The objective of these attacks is to warp and then break the moral foundations of increasing numbers of children so that both current and, especially, future generations will be manufactured into psychotics and destroyed. This must be stopped. The children of our state and nation must be protected from this monstrous attack. Please join the developing national campaign to save children from the transgender hysteria and to ban the transgender mutilation of children. Go toTheyAreAttackingTheChildren.org to join the fight to save our children from this war/jihad against them. And please join the Constitution Party—the last and only party in California which will fight to defend our children and families. Chairman—Constitution Party YouTube—USA vs Sodom Inc.
