Indoor composting & indoor plant walls
1) Every city and community should only ever plant food plants, as trees and shrubs, so that always there is excess free food all across the city, rather than useless un-edible trees and plants.
2) Indoor composting systems both for kitchen and toilets can allow any apartment dweller like myself, to grow most of my own food, in rows on my empty unused walls. This turns the valuable resource of our daily diet and trash and can convert it again into food grown indoors on walls, which also increase indoor oxygen levels.
I am building such a system, and I would have it all operational but my wife is difficult, and how it looks matters more to her than the idea of growing all our own lettuce and herbs and vegetables.
3) With modern LED lighting the entire wall system could be very cheap and cost effective.
Problems solving.
1) The waste of all the nutrient value of our diets (feces) which if properly oven baked and then composted would provide free high quality fertilizer for any gardening operations.
2) Every kitchen across the world produces food waste which normally goes into the trash to be dumped in a land fill.. AGAIN.. WASTED VALUABLE NUTRIENT VALUES.. lost. Therefore we should also compost our kitchen scraps with the possible option of adding worms for this purpose, meaning a large worm box for composting kitchen scraps, being near empty at first and fills up as we add food scraps and it all gets eaten by the worms, or otherwise bacterial action and decomposition.
3) FOOD COSTS and scarcity is a real thing, but if we grow our own food on the walls of our homes using the wasted light we have to use anyway, then it becomes very cost effective to grow vegetables and herbs rather than buy them.
4) WALL BASED indoor gardens increase oxygen levels indoors which every human needs indoors, and proven to improve health.
5) Every city has watering programs to water worthless unedible plants, and that is a waste of water.
it could be hydroponic or soil based, soil being better because it does not require pumps and the purchase of liquid plant foods.
It would be a product that can be sold, or made by hand.
It would come in parts.. lighting, wall mounts, composting toilets, and kitchen scrap composting box systems
I estimate On just one wall of my living room, I could grow 60 lettuce plants, and be able to have fresh lettuce literally everyday without end, as well as any other herb and vegetable i wish on any other wall. I Estimate that if fully utilized I could grow all my own plants for food on my walls, and never have need to buy them again.
This is of such an interest to me, I will write a book once I have finished perfecting my various systems to be described properly.
IT COULD VERY MUCH impact the poor, who could save large sums of money on food they would normally buy.
It would serve anyone who wants the convenience of fresh food on their walls, and wants the benefits to be had from increased indoor oxygen levels daily, making the indoor of their home like being in a rain forest, instead of what it normally is, dank, dusty and overloaded with CO2 and with lower oxygen levels that normal outside air.
IT WOULD SERVE THE PLANET by using less resources to grow food for the populations, by saving and recycling that food resource rather than throw it away or flush it, and this would have a direct impact on food supplies globally, and reduce the need for as much commercial farming, and will lead to a decrease in the RATE OF NATURE DESTRUCTION to make way for more and new farm lands.
- Improve supply chain practices to reduce food loss, scale new business models for producer-market connections, and create low-carbon cold chains
1) It would lower costs for the poor.
2) It would reduce the need for as much commercial farming.
3) It would increase food security.
4) It would directly stop the massive wasting of food and nutrients which are thrown into dumps and flushed, and as such will set forth food recycling programs in each city to ensure that each town become itself food secure.
5) THIS SOLVES THE WORLDS MAJOR PROBLEM OF FOOD waste and distribution, and can directly lead to an end to hunger.
- Prototype: A venture or organization building and testing its product, service, or business model
- A new application of an existing technology
saves money, uses less land, and provides fresh food to end hunger.
LED LIGHTING, composting toilets and worms and bacteria.
INDOOR PLANTS, do grow. Composting toilets do work. Composting systems are well know. Led's reduce lighting costs to make it all very effective.

WHEN I CAN GROW MY OWN VEGGIES INDOORS on my walls, I will save hundreds of dollars a month. And in doing so, also stop the waste of land fills and sewers, and so HELP THE PLANET.

I'm a one man team, and I share this as an obvious solution to a global problem... of waste, hunger and food scarcity.. which can only get worse unless we take steps to SOLVE THE PROBLEM.
The U.N. and all it's members.
And otherwise, any human who wants to help.
To achieve equality, all girls must be taught martial arts from an early age, because only skill and the ability to use it can even the playing field. This then leads to men being more respectful and more able to treat women as equals in all things.
I would spend the money to promote this simple truth, and get schools to start programs for girls.
