You realize that oranges can’t just grow anywhere right? There aren’t many places outside of greenhouses that they can be grown outside of British Columbia from what I’ve seen.

Can't grow as well in Florida now, as others have pointed out, since the US has its head buried up its own ass with respect to the growing population's impact on the climate.
Explain, because if you’re trying to advocate to only eat things locally growable, sourced, and in season then that’s great. That’s not proving your point, it just proves that you’re vague and looking for a gotcha. Being completely sustainable just isn’t an entirely reasonable expectation atm.
Sorry, it actually proves that I was short on time and opted to give a poorly thought out answer. Yes, I do advocate to eat locally growable, sourced and in season. And yes being completely locally sustainable isn't a reasonable expectation at this point.
Society can’t wrap its head around that level of sustainability because it’s impossible. Not just unreasonable. Not all land can handle the kind of agriculture that would require. It’s a nice thought, and I agree that prioritizing sustainable foods is great, but that just isn’t possible in
the world we live in. It would require massive swaths of people to move into land that would become greatly overcrowded. The only way we could really pull that off is if large amounts of the population suddenly didn’t exist.
