Just in case you missed it, I put a new page up on the top banner, “How Much More Food Must the World Produce?”
It is part 1 of my look into the claims made by many that bringing everyone in the world up to a western standard of living or equivalent will be easy, or even possible, and that there will be lots of room left over to spare. These claims seem fantastical at best. In Part 1 I look at how much more food the planet would need to produce to accomplish this, and part 2 will look at whether it is even possible that this could be done. Part 2 will be more involved so I’ll add that sometime later.
