I think the graphic would be better if some of the data were nested by size and relationship. IOW Agricultural land would have grazing, food production, feed production, etc. in decreasing size nested over an area. Might give greater sense of how much land is used for ag. Same for forestry; Forestry, parks, commercial logging, etc.
So, if most people are going vegan, there would be much more space for other stuff, yes?
Tobacco is still at least 2,000x too big.
Defense is a surprisingly large use of land. How is that? Can anyone explain the most land intensive uses of the Armed Forces? Like tank training areas maybe?
Mikitary bases are pretty big. Air force, army, national guard, naval air stations, naval bases, there is a lot going on there.
Can’t forget that military bases are communities where people live, too. Not just barracks and mess halls for individuals, but there are full neighborhoods and shopping centers for families.*
*My knowledge on this is limited, I just remember visiting a family member on base when I was younger.
This is correct
Man that guy Urban needs so many houses… What does he even do with them all?
is Alaska included? or are we just ignored because of our small population?
Probably ignored as that would skew the data making think that the US is still one big wilderness.
Get rid of livestock
Food we eat is sepperate from cow pastures…
Nice!
Fuck golf
Ban golf and replace all courses with public housing
Yeah that land could be used for more christmas trees
Yeah Maine is so well known for it’s urban housing
And Nevada for its timberland.
How nice for the Reed family/Green Diamond to be split into ‘private family owned timberland’ and ‘corporate timberland’.
So nice of the 100 largest land owning families to have the same amount of land as the entire urban or rural housing population of the rest of the country. I assume it’s to fatten themselves up for the rest of us just like the cows.
When do we get to eat them again?
Shit I’m hungry now I’ll start the smoker
This makes my eyes bleed
Can we put the 100 largest landowning families in Florida, then saw it off from the rest of the country?
no need to saw, when invasive species and the ocean is taking over. because florida loves to import all the illegal exotic animals, they got plenty reptiles, giant snails, giant rats. the latter 2 both carry nasty parasites.
Shit, there are landlords in the snails?
