mwt , 5 months ago @HeavenlyPossum @petealexharris @pleaseclap @SallyStrange @simon_brooke @violetmadder because it's profitable for farms to replace crops that won't grow with ones that will, buy new land that can be used for farming, and sell land that cannot. That doesn't require cooperation (though it can help). This is unlike overfishing which requires cooperation because overfishing is profitable. Obviously, there are limits to adaptation, and all of this is expensive and disruptive.
