    Pollutants may affect the food, but electric cars will reduce pollution, as will banning single use plastics. Also you can just build a greenhouse instead of open air, and some chickens for those who like eggs/meat. If I was mayor mandatory roof greenhouses/gardens would be pushed through aswell as one floor of a skyscraper used for this aswell as greenhouses and resident botanists/mycologists in our parks for people to learn and heal

    Growing food in urban setting is not ideal. The heavy metals from car and building exhaust accumulates in the air, soil and water and transfers into the food. Best to use this space to grow flowers and other plants that aren't eaten

    This type of farming requires large quantities of water and chemicals ( which may or maybe not balanced) and a constant supply of electricity , which in Singapore comes from burning gas . Much of the water in Singapore from Osmosis which is highly energy intensive , and also requires the water to be mixed with normal water , as this water is demineralised . Hydroponics can only grow a limited number of crops , and will never replace classic farms. Singapore will have to reduce its population to become sustainable

    Despite the conscious choice to reduce waste, and create co-operative initiative, growing food, starting food forests, permaculture, no dig, organic, there´s one light on the horizon, and that´s this light: there´s a climate change, but no crisis, no warming up, and no rising of the sea levels. The carbon meter measures better conditions now, compared to 25 years ago. Do your own research, but seek for the sources outside the mainstream media, okay?

    People need to change their thinking about what is “waste” if sewage systems are designed to keep toxic substances from contaminating effluent it could easily used to grow most of a cities food and the toxic chemicals would be far easier to be recycled instead of the current system of containing the environment.

Then you get somebody like a business owner who doesn't believe in the resource base economy yet your economy is because of resources. Hysterical but also I'm ready to change the minds of other people you're just not going to be the one that's going to make billions of dollars off of life.
