Tech for Good: Vertical Farming

Climate change is increasing global hunger and bringing 100 million people into poverty by 2030. With Earth's population expected to exceed 11 billion by the end of the century, the challenge to feed everyone is immeasurably difficult. One potential solution is vertical farming, which, as it sounds, is the practice of growing food in vertically stacked layers, or be part of another structure like a skyscraper or shipping container. Berlin-based venture, klimazone, is working to simplify vertical farming and ensure broad access to it.
