Planet SOS: Iceland pioneering sustainable food production

Delegates at the climate change talks at COP26 have discussed the issue of how industrial food production is draining the planet's resources.
Yet one country rich in renewable energy is showing how a controlled growing environment could be a sustainable farming model for the rest of the world.
Al Jazeera’s Charlie Angela reports from Reykholt, Iceland.

pioneering apocalyptic food production. permaculture is the future

heirlooms STOP GEOENGINEERING fools

[@steveparker8065]

It's funny but a few hundred years ago all materials, industry and food production was sustainable. Profit is the main reason for cutting corners, pollution levels and ecologically damaging materials... and yes I'm well aware we have increased population dramatically, but as this story proves, it's about the will to change!

Iceland seems to be one of the smarter counties when it comes to energy!!!

[@Maurazio]

they have free heating and energy from the hot springs, any country would do that if they could

[@WIACZO]

nope. it's not about being "smart". Its about being lucky with the resources. Iceland has more geothermal sources than rest of the Europe combined. Similarly thanks to its geography Norway is blessed with hydro energy. UK is blessed with ofshore wind sources... and some countries are blessed with neither, like Moldova.

Bànàñas fróm Iceland> wow¡🌳

[@jamie4871]

In tropical countries there's a lot growing banana everywhere no more worries because it's every year ... but in the countries with 4 season they need to use big greenhouse to grow some crop's (like banana trees) to survive from cold weather of autumn,and winter

[@00-Dima]

Yeah they are the most advanced in the world because they need to America has millions of acres of black soil

[@peace4850]

See there's printable supplies then get it out there to the starving people than children

[@abpccpba]

sustainable food production = glass buildings, glass, glass cutter, steel pipe, gate valves, copper wire, well-digging equipment, seed growers, etc.

[@kimberleypex]

" He sends down water (rain) from the sky; from it you drink and from it (grows) the vegetation on which you send your cattle to pasture. With it He causes to grow for you the crops, the olives, the date palms, the grapes and every kind of fruit. Verily, in this is indeed an evident proof and manifest sign for a people who give thought ". (Qur'an 16:10,11)

[@WIACZO]

Ironically "he" is not sending enough rain to the Arabian Peninsula, where "his" religion is dominant.
