Whats wrong with farming in the country?

Am i missing something here?

All you eco nuts, yet your 'solutions' to 'global warming' (read con) are totally irrational and silly.

zoolander, you definitely ARE missing something here. Much of Detroit is no longer urban; so many houses have burned down or been demolished that vast former city blocks have just returned to prairie. Here is just one of hundreds of images showing how much real estate in Detroit is now just vacant land. No one wants to live there, there are no jobs, so the highest use of the land may, possibly, prove to be farming.

This has absolutely nothing to do with global warming, real or imagined.

Lots of people out of work and struggling to survive, yet at least detriot is de-developing, becoming greener.

You eco nuts must be overjoyed.

What goes around comes around.
