Thats funny but somehow true. All they do is salads and microveggies. But im sure there are some that produce onions and potatoes. Potatoes are a big win

You can achieve a bigger margin with fresh leafygreens, this is the reason why we don't see potato and wheat vertical farms yet, I guess.
the funny thing about these hydro farms is they grow crap "nobody" for the most part eat. We eat sandwiches, cereal, burgers, meat and potatoes, not freaking leaves. Sure, occasionally a salad maybe ten times a year, but these hydroponics farms grossly lack variety of more realistic crops like fruit, berries, bananas, melons, kiwis, stuff people actually want to snack on, sweet things.
Do the liquid solvents become waste or are they renewable?...because it looks like you need a large amount of the solvent to get just a tiny bit of clean water.
Dispersed into the sea and mixed with salt water (Glaciers and Ice from south + north pole). Transferred to low-lying areas that causes extreme flooding. Worst of all, Contaminated Lakes or Rivers.
You can look at the clean water just like with energy on our planet. We are taking high quality energy (oil, gas) and after we use it, the resulted bi-products are not only useless but harmful. Same thing with the water. Industrial, sewage or biohazard water is the end-result of us using water and that water is toxic for us and the environment.
yes, Yes, YES, YASSSS! It's about time CNET got serious about covering this. Futuristic food production, refrigeration, HVAC, and family planning have the power to save life on earth, literally.
Looks like the hydroponic farm is a tradeoff between water and electricity (lights). There is also the cost of all the hardware (trays, ramps, frames) and rent on the building.
Really interesting and cool thanks Claire and CNET. I like the serious exploration of the future risks and the tech that's being developed to mitigate them
There is no water shortage. Fresh water is constantly resupplied trough rainfall. And if you live in a area with little rainfall the ocean is a infinite source of water, you just need energy to desalinate and pump it.
You guys are really amazing watching your videos has inspired us a lot and thus we have started our won club where we enlighten as much people as possible about all these. please do not stop this series we absolutely love it
Things I "learned" from this video: - There's going to be a drought apocalypse - There's going to be a flooding apocalypse - There's going to be a winter apocalypse - This is the _first time ever_ anyone ever cleaned/purified water - California and South Africa, two areas that border oceans, are running out of water - In the future, warehouses will only produce salad - Global warming, climate change and imminent doom are upon us (date to be determined) - A vertical farm warehouse is so clean, visitors have to wear protective suits, while workers can dress casual - If something is new & shiny, we don't ask about cons or limitations
Maybe SoCal should start. Have both processing plants that convert pollution into water and desalination plants both use solar panels on their roofs. Problem solved.
Developing this technology is certainly helpful in the future for exoterra colonization. They are not true solutions for the problems in our lifetimes, but will allow us to tread water and stay alive until we actually get ourselves out of a drowning situation. The figure of speak is intentionally ironic. I wonder how wasabi arugula would taste when used in sushi. Eat more, Claire! Great work. Cheers!
This is nothing new in fact many companies have been running "farms" like this for 20 years. They have failed to catch on or disrupt the industry, not because of a lack of tech or investment or even smart people working on it. The real reasons they have not and never will disrupt traditional farming is that if the math the economics don't make sense and even with the increases in output of these systems the would end up taking up ten times more room in a city then the people do just to grow enough food for those people. The cost of running the lights alone makes it uncompetitive for most crops not to mention the heat buildup of running a skyscraper full of grow lights would be completely unmanageable. The economics will never make sense at scale or for most traditional high volume staple crops because as you go vertical the capital costs grow exponentially and real-estate costs in city centers are prohibitively expensive. This is why you never see staple crops of feed grown in these "farms" and you only ever see hipster greens because they can mark those up enough to cover their costs and that market will pay it but that market is small and that is not even a small percentage of the overall market. The largest markets are for commodity crops such as wheat, rice, corn, and soy beans which it is completely unfeasible to grow vertically or in city centers. There is another solution, we retrofit pre-existing farms with much of the same tech and build greenhouses over their land. This allows for that land to produce the whole year just like the project shown here and save the same amount of water but without the huge cost of being in the city center, having to run elevators or lifts, paying for electricity, etc. etc. You would obviously still want to focus on the farms which are closest to the cities first to minimize the shipping and the waste that comes with it. It may seem at first that this would more expensive but this is not correct at any type of scale this is the far more economical option since the cost scales linearly per unit of growing space but your costs scale exponentially for each additional unit of growing space when you grow vertically or in cities.
Neat video but I was curious why you did not talk about clean and dirty water, not sure the right names here. But the idea is you get freshwater use it for cooking and washing then clean it and use it for toilets. So clean drinkable water would last longer.
I've read that cotton is one of the biggest water wasters..? That growing hemp uses much less water, can make more goods per harvest and it even grows a bit faster.. why are we still growing cotton?
this is awesome and I love the ingenuity, but some of the issues in CA are related to their policies. I heard in this video many times that 'climate change' was the cause of many of the problems. It was not mentioned in the video that CA actually has enough rainfall every year to satisfy its water needs and the needs of some of the surrounding states but due to the policies pushed in the state and the lack of run-off reclamation the state is categorized as being in a 'drought'.
why are they doing that? i remember as a child the two pressure cookers on the boat. you heat the water and it goes threw coils as steam and into the other cooker. it lleaves the alge and salt and bad stuff behind. so while out on the boat we make our own fresh water. you can even use a little salt water to boil vegetables. so using a solar panel and boiling water and steam we can make drinking water which they have been doing for years.
The issue is not going big but growing stuff that need more sunlight. Pretty sure those industrial LED's produce less than 1/100th the illuminance of direct sunlight.
@@johntheux9238 well ive grown weed indoors years ago in a 2x2m box who need a lot of sunlight too. It just needs bigger setup. Its all about the Watt numbers

Hey, I saw that Karl Fischer titration at 6:16 don't think you managed to sneak it by me! ...I freaking hate that test, does anybody have any advice to make replicates more replicable at low water levels?
Making the simple complicated because of sin. "For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows." 1 Timothy 6:10
@Amusis Treating sewage and desalinating seawater are very different things. America is the wealthiest country in the world, so why was California in a drought for 5 years? Do some research and use your brain.
@Amusis The fact that you think treating sewage and desalination are the same tells me a lot about your level of education. Educate yourself on material science and chemistry then get back to me.
Water doesn't disappear it just moves. We might have to ruin someone's beachfront view with a desalination plant but that will be the worst of it. The real issue is NIMBYism. People know the problem and solution but no one wants to fix it. We have thousands of miles of coastline we can use a few miles to build a few plants problem solved no more fighting for water. Figure out how many miles we need put that in a lottery and the property that is drawn the owners get bought out at FMV install the plant and be done with it. If there was ever a reason for eminent domain potable water for everyone would be it. Installing water storage towers would be a big help as well. Watching rain water just go down the drain is maddening as someone that lives in CA. We got money for trains that go nowhere but no money for water towers. Obviously this is not a problem or else they would have solved it instead of just producing documentaries.
Everyone in the comments suggests just building destination plants but that is not possible for the scale we need. It would take more like 10s of thousands of desalination plants at a minimum to do what you suggest. And desalination plants are extremely expensive and extremely inefficient. If it was as simple as just building a few desalination plants then that would be what was being done, but it is not a workable solution.
@@JBB685 Yes, of course. That's the whole point lets innovate and find better solutions. I am saying with technology as it is right now desalination is not feasible but with innovation it may be in the future.
It takes thousands of gallons of water to grow your McDonald’s meat burger, while that same amount of water is used for an entire year’s worth of vegan food.
So 1 percent water use growth just like world population. Ok I can see that. Now the only thing I would like to about the indoor farm is how much power does it need in a year
...... Other people says we are getting more water because the ice in the Antarctica is melting, even some small countries are in danger of being flooded and yet this video is saying about we are running out of water and global drought. I can't even. 🤦
I don't understand. May someone enlighten me. Global warming/Climate change thaw tons of ice and cause flooding. Would it not be too much water that causes flooding? And why water then is scarce?
What we wish for & repeat it all the time is wat will be given us. No no to any apocalypse. It should go far far away from earth. Lets pray water bodies does not dry. Let keep the environs free from waste, plastics & its entourages . Teaching the public, schools churches, hospitals how littering waste everywhere should be avoided can go a long way. Especially schools & market places. No to apocalypse!
Well, less water means less population, and less population means less to worry about since the population determines the usage of water... soo........
It makes no sense to me why California, located on the coast, would have water supply issues. Seems like they should be following what Israel has done with their desalination plants.
Why aren't countries that have an ocean front building desalination plants to pump water inland? This would provide more water & help the rising oceans from climate change that is melting the glaciers.
Just in case anyone thinks this will one day replace every outdoor field then think about this: The vertical farm needs computers, maintenance, controlling and most of all - power. Turn off the world and you are standed. Outdoor fields are the only thing that work pretty much for free just because it exists and you know how to grow stuff. IMO vertical farms are a perfect addition to our working (!) society but I don't see it as the ultimate replacement. As always with anything - mankind needs to find a healthy ballance.

Grow rice, wheat, corn and soy first before making bold claims otherwise these indoor farms are just glorified salad gardens.

You can achieve a bigger margin with fresh leafygreens, this is the reason why we don't see potato and wheat vertical farms yet, I guess.
The Netherlands section of this company is growing tomatoes and rice
Can we also talk about how much better quality vegetables those look like? I’ve never seen such beautiful lettuce in my life

Do the liquid solvents become waste or are they renewable?...because it looks like you need a large amount of the solvent to get just a tiny bit of clean water.
So, where does the water go? It doesn't leave the planet, does it? So it must be somewhere?!
Probably in the atmosphere. Hence the increasingly powerful tornadoes.
it’s tied up in other products and also in the lad but it talks some years to settle in underground beds to be re-extracted
Dispersed into the sea and mixed with salt water (Glaciers and Ice from south + north pole). Transferred to low-lying areas that causes extreme flooding.
Worst of all, Contaminated Lakes or Rivers.

How safe are those chemical used for treating polluted water.
We are not running out of water! Earth is over 70% water. All we need to do is to desalinate it. Something we have been doing for years!
the earth has PLENTY OF WATER. Just need better ways to collect it, clean it, and send it to the places needed.
Exactly.
Out west and Southern California they don't capture the runoff water or rain to recycle it for use as it's done else where east.
