Vertical Farming: Uh, the future?

Jun 19, 2007 20:10

This is the dumbest thing I've seen in a while. Is our understanding of biology so poor that we really think "organic" farming could occur without bugs? Who pollinates the flowers? And I'm confused about the light source that will make these plants grow? Anyone who has ever lived in a big city can tell you that big buildings cast big shadows which block the sun. Are they intending on having giant lights installed on each floor? When starting seeds you have to place grow lights within inches of the seedlings, that seems unlikely to happen in this design. Either I'm really confused, or someone is on crack.
