What does sci think about vertical farming technologies like: Aeroponics, Aquaponics, Hydroponics?
In addition what do you think about the advancement of LED technology especially with application to growing plants. Such as unique rest/light timings for faster growth.
Will genetic engineering and synthetic biology be huge for optimizing for vertical farming? Do you think the future is instead in vitro meat and vat-created foods rather than "grown" through natural processes? Does Vertical Farming counter some fears of climate change making farming unpredictable?
world's largest vertical farm is in USA and utilizes Aeroponics. Some pretty big investors backed it like RBH, Prudential and Goldman Sachs.

>>What does sci think about vertical farming it's a fucking scam yeah, but obtaining that 900,000 kg cost a gorillion dollars. Traditional farming is still cheaper.
>>LED technology where the fuck do you get the electricity to power the goddamn LEDs?
the world's not going to end, we're going to end. Or at the very least things are going to get incredibly shitty within our lifetime

cultured meat is about a billion times more practical than what you are talking about.
Yes, we could all sleep in pods, have minimal housing, and just work 16 hours a day. Thing is human psychology exists and people won't eat bugs.

>people won't eat bugs.
but people do eat them currently though and people do get over food taboos for several reasons.
