Once that technological progress has been made, and we have implemented those new technologies on a global scale, then sure.
Right here and right now, we're still largely relying on fossil fuels and machinery up to several decades old in order to produce food and considering it seems to be hard to even get up to modern standards, hoping for future tech to save the day seems far fetched.
- TomMarius 8y agoWhat if part of the reason is the fact that the new tech isn't better enough to justify switching - yet?
- ahje 8y agoSure. Do you believe we will be able to develop this new tech AND deploy it on a global scale within the next 10-15 years? Because that's how long we've got to turn this around before it turns really ugly. I don't think we can do that (although it is arguable that any drastic measures taken now doesn't have to be permanent, and that things can change again once we do have all that new fancy tech)
