    That’s not at all feasible for places with long, cold winters, or southwest areas without enough water, among others.

    And before you say “well people shouldn’t live there then”, they live in those places because of the other resources. For example, let’s say logging in Montana, or oil fields in Texas. You’re not going to get the world to stop needing those resources any time soon.

      I wonder how people in these areas survived without grocery stores, then.

        They always had some kind of food importation. Unless you want to go all the way back to the first few people in the area who did subsistence hunting and gathering. But that’s also not feasible for more than a few people.
