minus-squareBlameThePeacock@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6arrow-down2·4 days agoYour article says it’s 40:1 instead of the 10:1 I assumed, but that’s still far too little to matter. Your two floors of farming would still feed less than a hundred people full time, even if they hit those lofty idea targets.
minus-squareCanaconda@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down5·edit-24 days agoYou’re the one inserting the assumption that this has to become the only source of food for people. I said: or source through a local network. If you can’t read those words and comprehend them than why would I consider anything you have to say?
minus-squareBlameThePeacock@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7arrow-down3·4 days agoWhat the fuck does local mean? I just showed you the math that even Los Angeles alone consumes more food than you can possibly grow in California. You’re the one fucking around with “I want a greenhouse above my grocery store” with no real proof that it would matter or be a good use of space.
