Thinking about how they found that plants can grow really well inside closed "lab", I wonder if they'll develop intravenous water drips to maximize water use for growing as well.
I think there has also been talk that the feature will be large scale hydroponics setups and then just keep the water in a stable state (aquatic creatures like fish to fertilize, and can then have stable fish populations as well).
What comical is their initial stance was: I have the rights to all the water from this well. Government needs to stay out of my business.
Now it's: Why is there no water in my well? I need government to manage everyone else's water rights, as long as they stay out of my business.
I can't imagine a more childish approach to take.
Yep. That's just how people are. "I don't give a shit if I'm harming others, any inconvenience to me is unforgivable!"
I wonder if people truly think bat shit insane ideas like this are really viable.
That you think a significant % of the general population will go vegetarian and ranchers will become farmers (LMFAO), when a very-very small % of the population (farmers) won't even use decades old tech.
What's sad is that a basic fundamental aspect of this makes it not only not insane, but completely logical. It's straight up simple thermodynamics when considering the energy cycle/pyramid.
Of course, we don't need to completely cut out meat, but rather find better ways of offering it and/or cutting back on how much we consume. But oh no, we've got to keep shoveling cows full of grains so fatass mcfatfucks can engorge themselves to 300lbs in cheap meat that is literally killing them.
I don't think he thinks that at all, he's just pointing out the literal fact that it would drastically reduce our use of resources. Plus it would likely substantially improve the general health of our populations.
But nope we can't be smart about any of this stuff. Mooooooooar food! No self control at all!
Meat is a no-go. You have to be insane to suggest stop eating meat.
Also, how is water any worse for meat than crops? You don't say "I have to go out and water my cow every day". Also, meat is 100% essential to anyone's diet. At least, anyone that doesn't want to be scrawny and not be able to lift anything.
Of course, the worst has been shown to be nuts (Almonds in particular). If anything needs to go it's them.
Have you never taken any biology class ever? Its basic energy cycle/pyramid. It is very early intro to biology (I think it was taught literally the first day of Biology classes I've taken). Adding new levels in the energy cycle requires substantial increases in energy to sustain. It's why top predators tend to have lowest populations. But then humans came along and completely f'ed that up so we're trying to feed a massive population and doing it in the most complex manner possible.
WTF? We can get protein from animals without stuffing them as full as possible or outright killing them in massive numbers. Plus there's shitloads of protein and muscle building nutrients in plant sources.
Take some biology courses please.
