In some cases, shading crops with solar PV can reduce water use and increase yield. Agrivoltaics FTW. https://t.co/2EPpyohpgw

I bet Democrats would do better on the issue of crime if every time they felt inspired to say something about “gun violence” they uttered the exact same sentence but called it “crime” instead. — PolitiTweet.org

Climate change reduces mortality in cold places and raises it in hot ones, with smaller impacts in richer places. Since hot places are poorer on average and have many more people the net impact is very bad. — PolitiTweet.org

On pandemics, as on alcohol, we need ideas that are ambitious but also realistic — not just endlessly crashing our heads into the same wall. There are so many politically plausible areas for progress. https://t.co/8NGDNvK35X https://t.co/oiVRElEjC6 — PolitiTweet.org

But even if I got my way on that, there would still be significant public health problems related to alcohol. You could try to solve that with blanket prohibition but (a) voters wouldn't stand for it and (b) as we know enforcement is challenging. — PolitiTweet.org

One reason I focus specifically on taxes is that I think the country is facing some future fiscal policy choices in which *all* the available options are politically unpalatable, so I'd like to see this particular unpalatable idea in the mix. https://t.co/FiDRQBKGTb — PolitiTweet.org

We live with a quantity of cirrhosis, of drunk driving, of alcohol-fueled domestic violence and other problems that I think is much higher than it should be. I try to convince people that we should raise alcohol taxes and try to mitigate these issues. https://t.co/zthbMOqKwD — PolitiTweet.org

An example distant from infectious diseases — US public health outcomes would clearly improve if nobody in the country every drank any alcoholic beverages. But what actual *policy recommendation* follows from that is very unclear. — PolitiTweet.org

I think this discourse tends to reflect both a failure to reckon with cost-benefit analysis but also a lack of consideration as to what a the plausible role of public health expertise in a democratic society. https://t.co/shb15YdyZI — PolitiTweet.org
