What if there's no solution to climate change without freeing…See More

Hi!

Thanks for the link - I will blog it later. I find it an interesting debate about the divide between rural and urban. I personally find these huge architectural skyscrapers distasteful as they take plants out of natural cycles and artificially control all aspects of a plants life - yet it is important to develop a portfolio of solutions that incorporate the more traditional alongside the visionary living food machines.. although he does point out in the article that the majority of our food is produced hydroponically in controlled 'horizontal' environments.

Lets meet on Friday - I am working in the studio all day so why don't you pop round whenever suits you.

best
Rachel
