Exactly. There are tons of other varieties of bananas that are not Cavendish available in South Asia and South East Asia that could be grown in a much more sustainable way. Much tastier too.

Changing what we're doing to be less catastrophic isn't what we're into. We like assigning some scientists to make some miraculous solution, so we can keep doing the catastrophe, and then doubling down on how much of it we're doing if they succeed.
