- cratermoon 3y ago> it is used to grow food that people eat Yes, but in a hideously inefficient way. "Of the calories that cattle eat in feed, humans get a measly 3 percent in the beef we eat." "livestock-centric U.S. agriculture—viewed by many as the pinnacle of efficiency—actually feeds fewer people per hectare, 5.4, than the less meat-focused Chinese, 8.4, or Indian, 5.9." https://www.smallplanet.org/single-post/2016/11/10/meat-madness https://www.smallplanet.org/single-post/2016/11/10/meat-madn...

- cratermoon 3y agoHave you considered the possibility that there are other food crops that can be grown, and using much less water?
- randomdata 3y agoI have no reason to consider something off-topic, no.
