Environmental Impact Testers

Public Group active 5 months, 4 weeks ago

This group is testing the theory that windowfarming provides a lower carbon footprint avenue for urban dwellers to procure some of their own food. We think windowfarming may produce more calories of food compared to calories of energy used than industrial agriculture does . . . if not now, then in the future. We are 1) determining a baseline environmental impact of default urban food sources for comparison 2) testing environmental impacts of windowfarms from component sourcing to power draw, 3) documenting our findings for the community so that alternatives can be found for any problem areas within windowfarming.
