True! Thank you

Though seasteaders may argue.

But what is the habitable land area available for our current population? Any ideas?

[I don’t know]

yes if some want to live on mars or on the moon then some probably also would like to live literally anywhere on the surface of the earth. but probably more would like to live in a tiny house than in rough places like middle of ocean or sahara desert

I don’t doubt it. But the question was: how much space do we have? And how much of that is space that we want?

I’m not disagreeing. I simply don’t know
