What is vertical farming?
The farms present an idea of urban renewal, sustainable production of a safe and varied food supply year-round as well as the eventual repair of ecosystems that have been sacrificed through horizontal farming.
By using compact vertical farms instead of clearing more land, forests could be saved and trees planted to help combat global warming. This process also cuts down on fossil fuel use as no tractors or shipping costs play a factor.
