    I wish that Mr. Barber had answered his final rhetorical question honestly: “Hey guy, I love pink flamingos. But how you gonna feed the world?”

    His first answer is that a “billion people will go hungry today [...] because of gross inequalities in distribution, not tonnage”, which is true, but doesn’t tell us anything about whether it would still be true under his “ecological model”.

    His second answer is that every community has to feed itself, which of course is also true, but also dodges the question.

    Here’s the real answer: http://whyarethingsfalling.blip.tv/file/1126921/ (Derrick Jensen on why cities aren’t sustainable).
