    Default RIP Norman Borlaug

    Norman who?

    Not exactly an unsung hero but it’s surprising how obscure the man was except among organic proponents (where he was more or less infamous). I think he was visionary and, as usual, will probably be most appreciated years after his passing.

    Save a billion lives, die in relative obscurity. Kill a few million, live on forever.

    When will the species mature?
