If the world is hitting a food shortage and growing crops may be in the red due to climate, why not build a skyscraper or something to house a large multilevel farm? The architects of such a building could design it to allow in enough light for the growth of plant life, and the environment would be enclosed and can be controlled. Soil and nutrients could be added on top of the foundation of each floor. It would mean expanding upward in a controlled setting, instead of outward where weather is less predictable and insects are more likely to get into crops. If crops were layered in such a way, the food yield could become many times more than what a normal crop might produce. It would take some work, but it could be done... Also, couldn't hydroponics be used in some way to ease the food market demands, like making it more widespread?
