This graph is confusing because there are state lines drawn underneath, but it’s not saying by state.
"Wildfires" is a surprisingly large area. I wonder what the 2025 area for it is.
Very interesting! Now do one for EU, please.
Can't figure out why the 100 largest landowning families aren't using their land for any of the other reasons. Surely some of them are having it farmed for them too?
OIL. There's a LOT of land that might be considered cow/grazing but won't really grow anything worth it. See West Texas.
Swamps don't make good farms, but some people try to farm in FL, it's just inefficient and heavily pollutes or eliminates wetlands
Do we not eat any of the cows?
It simply takes a loooot of food to produce 1kg of beef
if its alafalfa, i think alot of farm land are, its usually exported to the Middle east.
Vegans and ecologists have been talking about this exact issue for a while now
literally decades. lots of talk around the conditions that bring new pandemics too.
