Is Urban Gardening Bad?

A study recently came out from the University of Michigan that showed that urban gardens have a carbon footprint that is 6 times larger than a conventional farm. Jess at ‪@RootsandRefugeFarm‬ said she hadn't seen one regular human agree with the articles written about the study. I might be that one regular human. In this video, I give my feedback on the study and my thoughts on the articles written about it. Are urban gardens bad for the environment?

Thank you, Todd. I have been shaking my head the last couple of weeks at all the KZbin gardeners I follow who are standing in the middle of their garden shaking their fist in the air over this. Unlike you, I haven't dug as far into the study, but I've found the headlines to be wayyyy off base. Thanks for the calm, reasonable analysis of the study.

Thank you so much for that feedback!

I wonder what was the carbon footprint of this study?

[@oneseedoneworld]

Probably much more than the gardens!
