What if we were to stop trying to be the policeman of the entire world and we redirected our funds currently being used for wars of agression and regime change to actually helping the planet and it's people?

It is a vast amount of money. The number I have heard is that the USA spends more than any other country on Defense and 52% of the the entire world's war budget.

Undoubtedly you could forest the entire USA desert and most of Africa.

The article is about the

Growing oranges in the winter
'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZD_3_gsgsnk

but also contains info on the harm of GMO&pesticides

https://healthvox.net/2019/09/14/documentary-nebraska-retiree-uses-earths-heat-to-grow-oranges-in-snow/

Here are some clippings of the article

Genetically modified seeds, the weed killer Roundup (glyphosate), and other dangerous agro chemicals and pesticides have hijacked our food system. This chemically-based method of industrial agriculture has irrevocably damaged the soil. It kills the microorganisms that provide the nutrients needed for plant growth and nutrition, depleting the soil minerals that enrich our food.

Because of soil depletion, fruits and vegetables grown decades ago were much richer in vitamins and minerals than those grown today;1 each successive generation of pesticide-resistant, gene-altered fruits and vegetables now is less nutritious than the one before.

Herbicides like Roundup and pesticides which include the notorious chlorpyrifos, atrazine and neonicotinoids, have endangered much of the U.S. food system, polluted our water systems and contributed to resistant pathogens.

The so-called Dirty Dozen with the highest pesticide concentrations include strawberries, apples, nectarines, peaches, celery, grapes, cherries, spinach, tomatoes, sweet bell peppers, cherry tomatoes and cucumbers. Human consumption of pesticides has been linked to cancer risks

, fertility problems and other health concerns.

Fortunately, there are safe, effective and natural alternatives for almost any pest problem that an individual gardener might come across. For example, a mashed garlic paste combined with a little cayenne pepper or horseradish made into a homemade garden spray will discourage most pests.
