Is vertical farming the answer?

The mad scientists are at it again! The great minds of the world reckon that by the year 2050, nearly 80% of the earth's population will reside in urban centers. Applying conservative estimates to current demographic trends, the human population will increase by about 3 billion people. More than 300 million hectares of new land will be needed to grow enough food to feed them. So what do the mad scientists think up as the solution?
The Vertical Farm. Have a look at www.verticalfarm.com and see if you think it's a crock.
