Original Note:
Article exaggerates from a slippery-slope fallacy. UM study does NOT recom a ban on homegrown food. It DOES allege that urban gardening has a carbon footprint 6x conventional agriculture and DOES recom inner cities use (expensive) greenhouses. Original study: https://www.nature.com/articles/s44284-023-00023-3 UM report: https://record.umich.edu/articles/study-examines-carbon-footprint-of-urban-farmed-food/
