me

Celia
,
what
____________________
vertical

?
And
where
____________________
the

Celia
:
The
idea
____________________
____________________
by
Dickson
Despommier
,
a
professor
at
Columbia
University
,
back
in
1999
.
Vertical
farms
____________________
basically
high
-
rise
greenhouses
that
____________________
____________________
____________________
in
cities
.
So
crops
____________________
____________________
____________________
____________________
-
and
in
water
,
instead
of
in
____________________
.
Anchor
:
And
what
____________________
the
advantages
of
____________________
food
in
this
way
?
Celia
:
Well
,
supporters
say
it's
more
reliable
because
crops
won't
____________________
____________________
by
weather
conditions
like
____________________
or
____________________
.
It's
also
more
environmentally
friendly
,
because
waste
____________________
____________________
____________________
and
water
____________________
____________________
____________________
.
And
because
crops
____________________
____________________
____________________
,
____________________
,
and
____________________
in
the
same
urban
area
,
transportation
costs
____________________
____________________
____________________
____________________
.
So
in
theory
,
food
____________________
____________________
____________________
,
too
