Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Honestly would that ever actually be a bad thing?

Like I really can't fathom a realistic way producing too much food (or whatever they're growing) can be a problem.

And before anyone brings up the economy I'd rather there be so much food it's worthless than what we have now.

You're not wrong, but when food is worthless there's no reason to grow it. Farms cost money to run. Now a solution could be to nationalize or subsidize farms completely so that the tax dollars put into them directly lower the cost of food, but that ain't happening.

Wouldn't it even itself out

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Probably not, but it's better than subsidizing farmers to not sell stuff and crash the market. That's just doubling down on waste.

Might be a carbon and unwanted other animal species issues. Bugs, small mammals, and predators thereof. Compost is great but it's still producing by-products. If distribution and politics could be solved (probably politics is the main barrier in distribution, followed by natural disaster, many of which are the direct result of politics), perhaps these things wouldn't be a great concern. But I'm not a scientist.
