- jacknews 3y agoYet this is exactly what the article's argument amounts to. There is simply no way to feed 8B with cozy 'holistic regenerative' approaches to farming. We're barely capable of doing it with the current rapacious mega-conglomerate chemical-soaked system. To go beyond it, and scale back the damage, we're going to need fermented foods, indoor fish races, synthetic juices/pulps/flours, proteins/meats, etc, etc. There's still a place for 'premium' food from local farms, etc. 'Cake' as you put it.
