Landfill to Food Factory: A Groundbreaking Plan

A revolutionary project in Wiltshire, England, plans to grow food atop a landfill site, utilizing captured carbon dioxide.

This world-first initiative aims to produce fresh fruits and vegetables year-round for nearby communities, significantly reducing food miles.

The innovative system uses purified CO2 and heat from waste decomposition to cultivate crops like avocados, not usually grown in Britain.

By combining waste management with sustainable food production, this project offers a novel solution to environmental and food security challenges.
