Vertical Farming vs Plebe Dirty Farming

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.

900,000kg of vegetables a year

If you want to save the world, the only diet that will do this (of course you would supplement with plants) is entomophagic:
>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entomophagy

kill yourself low IQ shitter. Climate change as end of world scenario is just not correct.

>What is space and efficiency?
Fuck off, you Chinese shilling retard.

>>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.

useless points.

People have money.

Anyway you believe in climate change disaster so it's clear you have very low cognitive abilities.

Then sell them Mr fuckface. People will pay out the ass for cultured cheeseburgers. Good luck with your roach meat product.

The tech for cultured meat is developing. we have had roaches for thousands of years and no roach sandwiches are popular.
