If you externalize the costs of a business activity, it means other people pay the costs--environmental, social and otherwise--and you get the profits. It goes on all the time in extractive industries such as oil and natural gas and mining.

First, you should know that I have an allergy to anything that smacks of geoengineering. And the use of biochar--charred organic matter that can improve soil fertility--to address climate change by interring carbon in farmland on a mass scale strikes me as one of the largest geoengineering projects

I have tried with facts and figures, with myth and melodrama, with hyperbole and histrionics, to show that the deer population is out of control in many places and that this is harmful to the environment. Nothing works. Nice people think it is bad to kill deer and that’s the end of it

Questions: Can we re-adapt enough to reduce dependency on the Old Reality as fast as it's replaced by the New Reality? Offset energy needs as fast as their costs rise beyond ability to pay? Grow increasing amounts of food as fast as price surpasses ability to buy? Find additional incomes in cottage economies (or career changes) & reduce expenses fast enough to keep our homes, pay debts, reskill, & retool?

Because of a US Supreme Court decision in 1942, the federal government can order you to halt food production in your own back yard by arguing that when you grow your own food, the amount of food you purchase from other food providers is reduced, meaning that your food production impacts interstate trade & therefore can be fully controlled by the federal government.

Feds order farmer to destroy his own wheat crops: The shocking revelations of Wickard vs Filburn
In other words, the federal government claims the authority right now -- even without the Food Safety Modernization Act -- to knock on your door and order you at gunpoint to destroy all the food in your garden, your greenhouse or your farm. They can order you to destroy all seeds in your possession and all food harvested from your own garden. And they can do all this with the full protection of U.S. law by simply citing the precedent set in Wickard v. Filburn in 1942 as ruled by the US Supreme Court.
The [corporate (Dem & Repug)] government is attempting to destroy the local food movement. They are trying to wipe out small, organic farms that compete with corporate agribiz in the same way the FDA has long plotted to destroy natural health supplement companies who compete with Big Pharma. Peak oil will sabotage their ability to do so, but before they've ruined our lives and land?
