"A new community housing development in the Bronx will feature a cool piece of kit: an on-site aerobic digester that can turn 1,100 pounds of food scraps into 220 pounds of high-quality fertilizer every single day.

Built by Harp Renewables, it’s basically a big stomach filled with bacteria that breaks down food scraps and wasted food into their component parts, and in the future could be a standard part of all apartment units as the amount of food waste in American reaches 30% of the total mass of all trash collection.

The Peninsula, organized by Gilbane Development Company, will feature 740 units of affordable housing, 50,000 square-foot light industrial space and equal sized green space, and 15,000 feet of commercial space, all of which will send their castaway comestibles right into the digester...

Fast Company reports that Christina Grace, founder of a zero-waste food management company, helped plan the design and implementation of the digester into The Peninsula, and helped organize a 40% grant from the city to pay the $50,000 upfront cost.

“The goal is for this material to work its way into the community garden network in the Bronx,” [Christina Grace, who helped plan the design] told the magazine, adding that she expects it to pay for itself over just a few years. “We see this as highly replicable in both commercial and residential venues. We know there’s a need for fertilizer.”

Producing fertilizer right there in the city reduces the need for it to be trucked in from afar, chipping away, even if just a bit, at NYC traffic.

Big problem solver

Perhaps uniquely beneficial to New York City compared to other spots in the U.S. is that the digester will have a significant impact on the Bronx’s share of the city’s rodent problem.

Those who’ve watched the Morgan Spurlock documentary Rats will understand why that’s significant—while those that haven’t will have to imagine what living in a megacity where rats outnumber people by around 8 or 10 to 1 looks like.

Another big problem the bio-digesters could potentially help is pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. Fertilizer is a big emitter of all three of the most-targeted GHGs. Fertilizer, like quarry dust and ammonia is, like so many commodities, often imported from countries who specialize in its production, such as Norway, but also Russia and Ukraine, whose conflict has recently highlighted the fragility of the supply chain with sharp increases in prices...

Bio-digesters by design keep the CO2 and methane in the fertilizer produced, rather than it entering the atmosphere.

For these reasons and more, the aerobic bio-digester is slowly making its way into residential and industrial spaces around the country.

GNN reported on an enormous bio-digester at the heart of the D.C. advanced resource (sewage) recovery center outside the capital, and on the use of bio-digesters on Australian pig farms which are helping reduce the environmental and psychological impact of the effluent produced from such operations.

Harp Renewables tweeted how happy they were to have installed their bio-digester in the town of Cashel, Ireland.

Expect to see more stories like this pop up around the globe."

Note: Obviously gentrification bad and "affordable housing" is sometimes nowhere near as affordable as it should be, etc. etc. That said, this is such a fantastic use case that I felt I had to post it anyway.

If we want to reduce the heat we need to plant way more trees.

They provide shade, food, and effectively cool down the environment because they don’t hold heat like asphalt, pavement, bricks, traditional roofs, etc.

Trees provide habitat for birds which eat immense amounts of insects including caterpillars, mosquitos and flies, while also fertilizing the soil with their manure.

Some trees fix nitrogen into the ground making the soil more fertile in a natural and effortless and free way, just by standing there.

More trees also means more wood.

Trees can be used to create food forests, which in turn reduce the chances of forest fires because with well-managed living crops growing in the soil under the trees they hold more moisture and don’t catch on fire so easily.

You can prune them at will to give the lower crops the perfect amount of light and shade. With the pruning we can create mulch, (fire)wood, and wood chips mixed with mycelium for making walkingpaths that grow mushrooms.

Add a small amount of chickens per large area and you have extra fertilization and excellent pest control as they eat the insects that also like to eat vegetables. Include ducks and they will get rid of the slugs too.

Tree roots also hold the soil together, preventing soil erosion while providing excellent drainage so that when it rains, the water can penetrate the soil faster and deeper, effectively absorbing floods as well.

Pecan tree charcoal which we made in a process called biochar. We add this to compost and over time the beneficial bacteria in the compost join the carbon and they live happily ever after for hundreds of years.

My greatest rival in the debate on whether the world can sustain food production without mineral fertilizers is my beloved wife. Whole Foods is indeed our preferred store. However, despite my respect for organic farming, I believe the world will still require a significant amount of mineral fertilizers. Yesterday, it rained all day in London, giving me plenty of time to write this detailed piece.

The Challenge of Producing Enough Agricultural Products Without Mineral Fertilisers

As the global population continues to rise, the demand for agricultural products increases alongside it. This has prompted an ongoing debate about the sustainability of agricultural practices, particularly the use of mineral fertilisers. While there is a growing interest in organic farming and other sustainable practices, there are significant challenges to producing enough agricultural products without the aid of mineral fertilisers. Here's an examination of why this is a daunting task.

One of the primary reasons for the widespread use of mineral fertilisers is the rapid depletion of soil nutrients due to intensive farming practices. Continuously cropping the same land without allowing time for natural regeneration strips the soil of essential nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which are crucial for plant growth. Without replenishing these nutrients through fertilisation, soil becomes less fertile over time, significantly reducing yields.

The global population is expected to reach nearly 10 billion by 2050, significantly increasing the demand for food. With limited arable land available, the pressure to maximise yields from every acre is immense. Mineral fertilisers have been instrumental in boosting crop productivity to meet this demand. Without them, current agricultural land would struggle to produce the necessary quantities of food, potentially leading to food shortages and higher prices.

While organic farming and other sustainable practices offer numerous environmental benefits, scaling these methods to meet global food demand poses significant challenges. Organic methods typically require more land to produce the same amount of food as conventional farming due to lower yields. Moreover, transitioning to organic farming on a global scale would require a substantial increase in organic matter inputs, such as compost and green manure, which may not be available in sufficient quantities.

Climate change exacerbates the challenge of growing enough food without mineral fertilisers. Increasingly unpredictable weather patterns, including droughts and floods, can degrade soil quality and reduce crop yields. Mineral fertilisers can help plants better withstand these stresses by enhancing their growth and resilience. Without them, crops may be more vulnerable to climate change impacts, potentially leading to lower productivity.

Implementing sustainable agricultural practices on a large scale requires significant technological innovation and financial investment. Smallholder farmers, who produce a significant portion of the world's food, often lack access to the resources needed to transition away from mineral fertilisers. The upfront costs and learning curve associated with adopting new methods can be prohibitive, limiting the feasibility of moving away from mineral fertilizers in many parts of the world.

While the aspiration to reduce dependence on mineral fertilisers is commendable, the reality is that they currently play a critical role in global food security. To produce enough agricultural products to feed the world without them, we would need significant advancements in sustainable farming practices, technological innovation, and global cooperation. Until such solutions are developed and widely implemented, mineral fertilisers remain an essential tool in meeting the world's food needs.

Unmasking the Truth Behind World Hunger – Part 3!

In this final installment of our three-part series on world hunger, we're going to explore the issue of overpopulation and how it's contributing to world hunger.

companies estimate that about 120 kilogram of poultry can be produced on one hectare of land so to produce 65 million tons of protein we would need at least 541 million hectares of land even more since it's not 100 protein that saves a lot of pesticides antibiotics herbicides and many other chemicals normally needed for food production this means that 541 million hectares of potential rainforest can be saved just by the protein produced by the black silver
