Eating Clean is Useless

This makes intuitive sense but I have never seen good evidence for it. I personally do not believe that:

  - organic food is bad for the environment 
  - organic food is less space efficient to grow

I do believe that:

  - organic food may have lower crop yields

Uh...

These are the same thing. If you have to generate X calories, and you generate fewer per acre, then you need more acres of crop.

Think outside the box. Think 3D agriculture. Aeroponics.

But if you're willing to do that for organic you're also willing to do that for non organic.
