@camerontw Yes, I see what you’re saying now… agree

[Vanessa A. Clarkson @realfoodness]

@camerontw I have seen the word ‘fracture’ in relation to social practices. Could it be that rather than electrocution? The idea that you are interrupting/‘breaking’ the connections between elements of a practice. (I haven’t read the article you linked).

@1stepsnutrition This is what is known as the drift to low performance in systems lingo. I completely agree with you. Can’t see the wood for the trees.

Excellent and insightful account from the wonderful @MaywaMontenegro on healing the metabolic rift in agrifood systems.
