Sie wohnen mitten in der Stadt, haben weder Garten noch Balkon, und möchten nicht auf frisches Gemüse aus Eigenanbau verzichten? Dann ist Window-Farming für Sie die richtige Lösung! windowfarms.org ist eine Webplattform, die Konzepte eines nachhaltigen städtischen Lebens entwirft und erprobt.
Sie brauchen keine schweren Einkaufstaschen mehr die Treppen hoch zu schleppen. Ihr ökologisches Gewissen ist wieder rein, denn ab sofort kommen keine Nahrungsmittel mehr auf den Tisch, die aus halb Europa angekarrt werden müssen. Und falls Sie Ihr grüner Daumen im Stich lässt, beratschlagen Sie sich kurzerhand mit der Community über die richtigen Gemüsesorten und Nährstoffmengen, damit sie das ganze Jahr über reichlich ernten können.
Das Starter-Kit unter windowfarms.org bestellen, und los geht's! ;-)

Food Print Manhattan was presented at Pioneers of Change, a festival of Dutch design, fashion and architecture on New York's Governors Island, curated by Renny Ramakers

How much space is needed to produce food for the entire population of Manhattan, including those who live there and those who visit? With current US production yields, this would require 150 times the area of Manhattan.
With a combination of hydroponic farming to boost crop efficiency, organic farming for animals to increase quality and animal well-being, while maintaining minimum livestock surface areas as specified by Dutch regulations (US organic farming regulations do not specify minimum), the area needed for food production is reduced to 46 times Manhattan.
To grow all food for Manhattanites in one tower, a tower of 23 miles in height would be needed, including the food for animal production (or 8.7 miles tall without food). By distributing various ingredients over Governors Island in different towers—cereal tower, chicken tower, fruit tower, fish tower—a gigantic food city would appear next to Lady Liberty. Alternatively, distributing the towers over all the rooftops of Manhattan would result in a food layer of 656 feet on top of every building of the city.
Study, 2009
