Tuesday's Assorted Links

Covid excuses, a 500-year old tree, school lunches, study drugs, and laundry detergent

Hi, y’all! I hope the first few days of 2022 have been stress-free and that your New Year’s resolutions are still on track 4 days into the year.

Here are 5 stories from the last week that I found really interesting:

1. Covid excuses are different than Covid explanations, and people are tired of excuses

2. A 500-year old Alaskan tree could be sold for $17,500, but it’s worth so much more

3. A cartoon explanation on the history of government intervention in the school lunch program

4. Students can access “study drugs” for cheaper than a cup of coffee"

5. The dirty secret of America’s clean dishes

As always, please share this newsletter if one of these stories stood out to you or leave a comment by clicking the link below!
