I was on the FAO stats when t'internet was a wee baby. It is topsoil the key issue because you dont grow staples using hydro, nor grass for milk and
meat. No topsoil=screwed.
However if you can grow fish and vegatables in one system, you start to win. Here is a good example of Aquaponics simply explained. I would recommend finding out about Permaculture too, and start practising.
You debase the system entirely when you employ methods to replace it.

Great post. This is what I have been saying to people. Distribution is the issue here. Now take this into consideration: I live with two guys who routinely make trips out to the bigger supermarkets after hours and raid their bins. They return almost every time with unbelievable amounts of awesome food. Heres an example, one night they returned with assorted cheeses, bags of bread, AN INTERNET STICK, socks, juices, fruit, dressings, pasties etc etc etc etc, massive amounts of totally good food that gets thrown into the bin almost EVERY DAY, it's mind boggling. If these chains organized a charity to come and collect the breads and pastries and cheeses and edible stuff then it would feed lots and lots of very hungry people who can't afford to shop at the supermarket.
All supermarkets should take this approach, the amount of food the gets thrown into the bin is bloody criminal....

See that's a great idea in Russia, it's little things like that which can help, I saw a projection of a green future in which people in cities all grew veggies on vines hanging from their balcony apartments, that will be the day.
Part of it is also eating things that are seasonal, it's not sustainable to be munching down on mango's all winter, this needs to stop also, it just means more transportation of goods, gasses and use oil.
Good points man

Cheers for the responses
Sounds like a really nice place. That is the kind of community attitude that the world needs, if we all help out a little bit, grow what we can, share what we can, this world would be a much nicer place....Thanks for the well instructions too.

Me and my girlfriend have had a garden running a couple of years and you're totally right, it would be very hard to completely live off. I mean we get a LOT of tomatoes when the times right, pumpkins, cucumbers and beans and also herbs like basil and rosemary. While we get enough tomatoes to live off during season there is just no way we could survive off the rest, although I'm sure as the years go by we'll get better yields.
