Well - if we take all the land available to human beings - then take out that which is desert or mountain or marsh or thick forest- and then divide this land by the number of people on earth today-- WE GET 0.7 HECTARES EACH.
Now , you might say that you dont have 0.7 hectares! YES YOU DO! see , you use gas- gas comes from gas fields- so divide the gas you use with the total gas production of the world- and thats the percentage of the gas field area thats yours. Kids in school? - divide the area of the school with the number of kids - thats the area owned by your son or daughter at this time. Same with the food you eat (farm land), the gym you go to, the park you walk in , your apartment or house space, your office etc etc.
Even a poor guy who does not have land - uses land ! and this averages 0.7 hectares.
so, FOR 4 MEMBERS OF MY FAMILY- i need 0.7 x 4 hectares = 7 acres.
Now - if i have a big vegetable garden, goats, fish pond, honey bees, chicken , compost (insects), solar panels, rain water harvesting, a house (with gym and all), a electric car (running on our solar generated electricity), bio-toilet, greenhouse/hydroponics - all on our 7 acres - the we will be 100% sure that we are not using more land than we have!!! (a HUMMER driver who travels a lot on the plane for eg- uses several acres for himself!!)
and thats why I want to buy my 7 acres- and i will- soon
