How much land do you think it takes to house, feed, clothe, and otherwise provide for the needs of one civilized human being?

Well, the ENTIRE land surface of the world (including the antarctic, the mountains, deserts, jungle, etc) is 36.8 billion acres. The human population of the world is 7.84 billion people.

That is just 4.7 acres per person.
