I actually have sympathy with quite a lot of your views but - Sorry to say you don't half come across as a bit of a "broken record" at times.
I know you are probably really committed and you are trying as hard as you can to convince the world but.............
.....all the facts and figures of how much land is being used to grow food today which is pretty small when compared to say the Bronze age, where just about all available land was used for food production.
You jest, of couse. A quote like that is rediculous.
Good point but i would rather have a gun, than just be standing there pointing a carrot.
Please go and watch the film One Man One Cow one Planet then speak to some Bronze age and food/farming experts and ask them how many people and settlements existed in many places that are not possible today, due to the sub tropical paradice that it was back then, and officially how many people actually lived in the British Isles throughout.
To work these settlement takes 12 people starting very early before next season and working a whole year to compete with the machinery that can do the same in only one week, ploughing, seeding and harvest of a main crop.
Then work out were we richer in the Bronze age or richer today person for person, have we gone forwards or backwards and where we are today on the collapse of previous civilisations charts.
.
20,000 years ago - before the Bronze Age .. there were virtually no humans in the UK and where I write was covered in half a mile of glacial ice.
You can pick any time of your choosing and make invidious calculations.
Compared to then , life now is easy , longer and infinitely better.
Facts.
