Also using solar power for the crops would a determinant in using solar power over oil and electricity. It solve enivironmental problems as well.

Also due to the fact that they are growing them inside solar green houses would prevent insects and weather hazards would interfearing with the crops.

Soon the idea of shipping crops from the countryside with trucks would sound quite primitive. Another idea I wished they put in the article was that they could irrigate sewage to use as fertilizer for the crops thus making the soil used to plant the crops more fertile, making beaches near those areas cleaner, and putting freshwater that is wasted to good use.
