They didn't cover the aspect of organic meat which would be a massive difference if you consider the animal's life.

7:23 "A combination of their best features". Look at the animation. Instead of a plane putting pesticides on the crops it's a drone. Give me a royal break............................This channel is so annoyingly full of itself. The entire video presumes that it's the arbiter of truth on the subject. First off, something labelled "USDA Organic" is a minor bureaucratic government label. We buy food all the time that isn't "USDA Organic" because they don't want to jump through all the regulatory hoops required and pay all the costs associated with certification. So the entire video just bypasses all sane and relevant study of nutrition and farming practices. Kurzgesagt is an annoyingly self-righteous, pompous, know nothing idiot.

There are certain channels whose latest videos seem to automatically get posted on BOYT. I personally come to this site to discover new interesting videos that would have otherwise passed me by on youtube. Yes, Kurzgesagt's videos are great, but not absolutely every single one needs to appear here please

  Its a valid point and you're right - Ignore the down votes, they know not what they are voting for.

Any references for organic farming taking up more land? Seems completely backwards to me, For livestock raised under organic regs, yes they do require more sq ft, per animal. For food production, organic practices produce more yield per sq ft according to studies I’ve seen.... conventional farming get the “win” because it takes less ground.... if that is true because they stack cows and pigs into pens they can’t turn around in, that’s not the way we win farming. This video from Kurtz will make me doubt all their others

  Really? I heard a rumor going around that you and Noemoc have been thick as thieves in private correspondence on this platform........ nah, that can't be true though. Just a silly rumor is all that is.

  Ha! Yeah, I think it was from Kurzgesagt. I should have known he would take a complex issue like private messaging and break it down into simplistic elements that remove all traces of any sort of nuance! Breath Dave... just breathe.....heee hoo heee hooo......

Kurzgesagt is about as entertaining and factually correct as VOX, but at least he's youtube (afaik) ;)
