Summary

"Vertical Farming Solutions" explores the promise of vertical farming as a key component of future food systems. It examines how these indoor farms maximize crop yields in limited spaces, potentially revolutionizing sustainable agriculture. The book highlights intriguing facts, such as the ability to precisely control growing conditions using LED lighting, climate control, and sensor technologies, and the potential to significantly reduce water consumption compared to traditional farming.

 
The book takes a multifaceted approach, starting with the science behind hydroponics, aeroponics, and aquaponics. It then moves into the technological aspects, including automation and climate control, before analyzing the economic and social implications, such as business models and community access. This comprehensive view allows readers to understand the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats associated with vertical farming.

 
By combining empirical data with systems thinking, the book presents a balanced perspective on this emerging field. It avoids utopian fantasies while also moving past premature dismissals, offering valuable insights for policymakers, investors, entrepreneurs, and anyone interested in food security and environmental sustainability. The book progresses across chapters, building from core principles to economic impacts, providing a thorough understanding of vertical farming's potential and limitations.

    The story of surfing in Scotland is defined by people who dared to dream in spite of the cold, from Neva MacDonald-Haig and the coffin-lid surfers of Machrihanish, who first took to the waves off the west coast in the 1930s with a little help from a local undertaker, to Andy Bennetts and the pioneers of the 1960s, who discovered many of the nation's best breaks, to contemporary big wave surfer Ben Larg, a native of the tiny island of Tiree who now travels the world riding skyscraper-sized walls of water for a living.
Scotland is also home to a rich and distinctive surfing culture, with its own surfboard shapers, surf instructors, surf filmmakers, surf photographers and surf fashion brands, not to mention surf-inspired artists and musicians. Professional contests held at some of Scotland's best waves have drawn visits from surfing world champions including Tom Curren, Sunny Garcia and John John Florence, and in recent years Scotland's own surfers have begun to make their presence felt on the competitive stage, with the Scottish surf team featuring at the World Surfing Games and at Eurosurf after finally gaining official recognition in 2014.
The View From the Shoulder draws together 20 years of surf journalism from the pages of The Scotsman newspaper, together with fresh context, to create a portrait of a wave-riding community like no other.

    Thick with owls and badgers, oak trees and wood piles, scarecrows and ghosts, and Tom Cox's loud and excitable dad, this book is full of the folklore of several counties the ancient kind and the everyday variety as well as wild places, mystical spots and curious objects. Emerging from this focus on the detail are themes that are broader and bigger and more important than ever.
Tom's writing treads a new path, one that has a lot in common with a rambling country walk; it's bewitched by fresh air and big skies, intrepid in minor ways, haunted by weather and old stories and the spooky edges of the outdoors, restless and prone to a few detours, but it always reaches its destination in the end.
