I think #verticalfarming has a place, they were just doing it wrong: https://www.fastcompany.com/90824702/ver.. Use #lightpipes for lighting only aided with #ultraviolet , get rid of the #warehouse and just have a #concrete base, with #natural #wind #cooling . Keep #labour #overhead low and only bother #growing #profitable #crop . #robotics and #tech should be avoided unless they are *required* - not just a way to get more #funding .
Looks like #robotics is starting to make a massive #impact on #agricultural #farming , in ways I hadn't even thought would be possible: https://youtube.com/watch?v=sV0cR_Nhac0 Really great stuff. As other people have mentioned, the killer application is a #forest with #swarms of smaller #robots growing in more #natural #environments , requiring zero to no #pesticides, etc.
#china 's #natural #gar #consumption is set to fall for the first time in 20 years: https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/chinas.. Why is this significant? It means that #china 's #ccp are also having an #energy #crisis , they just aren't telling anybody. This is even with them #buying #russia 's #gas ...
Looks like we are at the end of #cheap #food now: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/e.. Everything that #food relies on, #natural #gar , #coal , #fertilizer , etc, has all gone up. There is no way #food #prices do not increase with it.
Oh dear, the #eu #propose a #pricecap on non- #natural #gas #generated #electricity https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/eu.. I #suspect what we will see is that #energy #companies will rather #sell their #fuel to places willing to #pay more than they would get for #burning it. This #policy is #doomed to #fail .
Interesting, apparently the #us 's #cdc has no #records of people #transmitting #covid after getting #natural #immunity https://www.zerohedge.com/covid-19/cdc-a.. That's not to suggest it doesn't happen, but it's important in figuring out exactly how effective the #vaccine actually is compared to natural immunity. It also is exceptionally important in figuring out #herd #immunity rates!
As I suspected, the #idea of #longcovid being a #sideeffect of #covid is actually mostly #bullshit https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/long-.. This of course makes sense - #natural #immunity means you are #immune to multiple parts of the #virus , not just the #spikeprotein ...
