Small-scale, local farming is where it's at. Growing a bucket of potatoes on a balcony or helping out at a community garden are small but achievable steps to bring the food closer to us. In addition to sustainability, it promotes knowledge of how to produce our own food and reduces dependence on large-scale monoculture farming.
It's nice to walk a few paces and pick up an ingredient for dinner with the satisfaction that you nurtured it. But mainly, I just don't feel like going to the grocery store as much lol.

Small scale farming would not be able to sustain the human population as it stands.
Yeah more ad hominem attacks. That's a really good way to convince someone you're correct, getting angry and lashing out for the crime of asking questions and trying to foster an open discussion.
For the record, I detest Elon Musk.
Of course I think my current opinions are correct, I wouldn't hold them otherwise. That doesn't mean I'm incapable of changing my mind through persuasive argument. Aren't you also trying to defend your worldview? It's an excellent tactic for trying to refine to yourself what you actually believe putting your views out there for public scrutiny.
