An architectural rendering for an urban office building? A condominium?
Welcome to the future of agriculture, as conceived by a scientist at Columbia University.
"It took humans 10,000 years to learn how to grow most of the crops we
now take for granted. Along the way, we despoiled most of the land we
worked, often turning verdant, natural ecozones into semi-arid deserts.
Over 60% of the human population now lives vertically in cities. The
time has arrived for us to learn how to grow our food that way, too."
