According to studies, hunters and gatherers live the original good life. Generally, they only have to work about 20 hours a week to ensure they have enough food, so they probably fall at the bottom of the list.

My guess would be intensive agriculture. The thing about it is, not only do you have all the hard work of farming, and farming for lots and lots of people at that, but you also have to get the food to the people. You have to ship it, pack it, ship it again, and then maybe even again, from the distribution center to the grocery store, and then you have to put it on the shelves. Then, after all that, your customers still have to get to the store and buy the blasted things. I mean, it's nice to have pineapple in Pennsylvania in November, but it takes a heck of a lot of work to get it to me.
