Urban Farming


We have found out that by the time year 2050 comes, there will be an additional 9.1 million people! It will be very hard to feed everyone in the world. 70% of all people will be living in the city! The idea of urban farming has been going on for a while, but never really happened, until now! In Sweden, a huge skyscraper was built for the urban farming, but also for scientist from all around the earth to come and share their ideas and improve urban farming. In this skyscraper, the temperature is made by a machine that helps them, and the city’s air, because it absorbs the carbon dioxide from nearby buildings and uses that to create the temperature, to weather it needs to be cold or warm. If everything goes as planned, they will begin farming in 12-16 months! If it turns out a success, then they will start making these buildings all around the world so that there would be urban farming in other countries, and not just in Sweden! If this all works, it would get rid of the food crisis in the next 40 years!
