    So destroy more forest to grow food for one person? May I suggest an alternative. We protect the little forest that remains and instead relax zoning laws to allow people to grow food on the countless acres of grassy yard space/land we already have. Grass is an outdated non native crop originally grown by rich assholes as a staus symbol to say “I have so much I do not need to use my land for anything productive.”

      You don’t have to tear down a forest to grow food. There are far more options out there for growing food than conventional modern farming. I totally agree about lawns, though. Lawns are stupid.
