Not in energy requirements when the sun is free and electricity and lightbulbs are not.

Transporting food halfway across the world ain't free either.

Absolutely. Doesn't change my point. Just brings up a different one.

Transport costs are enormous. The land you’re talking about using could be used to generate even more power with renewables.
