It's about containment. Now we are everywhere. You fly over Malysia and Indonesia and the whole place is plantations.

- mulmen 6y agoWe aren’t everywhere though. And the parts you can see and fly over are the parts with people, that’s where we put airports. When you say we should limit human presence to 50% (of land?) that implies enormous development.
- rorykoehler 6y agoHalf of all habitable land is used for agriculture. 37% by forests... much of that managed forests which are used for human resources. The ones we aren't managing we are felling, irreversibly destroying million year old ecosystems. https://ourworldindata.org/global-land-for-agriculture https://ourworldindata.org/global-land-for-agriculture
