look, im car free by choice - couldve owned a newer A4 avant. So we agree on the parking lots in its prevalance are too much.

This doesnt change the fact that the whole sheep input is still absurd - no matter how romanticized the cartoony picture looks like.. the realist view on your idealist idea could be "agrar solar" -> here an example picture

There is a big ass vehicle turning the soil in that pic. I dont think thats a phase of modern agriculture typically presented in the pr photos, and its not pretty even when you do it by hand.

i dont follow, maybe its because im not native english/american? id be happy if you could make the point clearer for me here..cause currently youre discribing the thing but there seems to be no full argument without further context?

Farms are ugly. Factory farms doubly so.

This is the ugly phase. You can see the soil being turned by the tractor in the pic linked. It looks at lesst a little less ugly a couple months after that.

I mean u can easily replace the farming method under it...?!

Never made my point for a farming method here, u can just swap this solar system with syntropic agriculture or whatever your heart desires.... no?

Thats not the point. I... Nevermind.

Goats under economic interest are ugly, I have no clue what your point is by critiquing the solar panel system for a (variable) farming method

I mean we can agree here then no?

Pls enlighten me
