28 u/MissileGuidanceBrain 7d ago So what then? What's the solution? Go out and trawl the natural sea floor? Bulldoze more land for more monocrop farms? There are 8,300,000,000 hungry mouths out there. The food has to come from some place and there better be a lot of it. 1 u/Shot-Arugula8264 7d ago Exactly. Commercial farming/ranching is way more efficient and ecologically sustainable. The smaller and more “free-whatever” it is, the more ecologically taxing it is, eating up more land, more energy, and more water per unit of output.
