Vertical farming: Skyscraper sustainability?

Sustainable Cities and Society, 2015
Abstract It is predicted that the world population will reach 9 billion by 2050, of which 70% will live in urban centres. This change, alongside a changing climate, will strain Earth's resources, especially the food supply chain. One idea that has been proposed to address this issue is vertical farming – the urban farming of fruits, vegetables, and ...
