I am pretty sure this is just not reality. I am reading Vaclav Smil and this is not the picture he paints at all.
From reading Smil though I come away with the idea that informed discussion on this matter is basically impossible because the subject is too complicated. People will just talk their prior beliefs.
It is really a bad situation no matter how you look at it.
The discussion needs to be about gigajoules per hectare but I have never read anyone mention that other than Smil. This of course could be my ignorance.
