One instance. Your sort of business has put millions in an early grave.
Jim's sort of business has fed millions of people in cities who would
otherwise have gone hungry - or worse.
A colossal part of the Earth's land surface has been devoted to pasture,
Because a colossal part of the Earth's land surface will not grow any crop
suitable for human consumption. Sheep, for example, can roam many acres of
upland grass and convert a very thin supply of nutrient into a form that
humans can eat.
We've done this one to death many times Pearl (Lotus). Jim even offered you
the use of enough of his land to demonstrate your principles and show him,
and the rest of the farming community, where they were going wrong.
You declined then when you realised the impossibility of the task you had
set yourself and so Jim has continued to graze that same land extensively
(look it up - Lotus, don't guess) and to convert its product into food.
Consult google or one of the other usenet archives if your memory is faulty.
Cheerio,
