What urban farming? That’s old news. Let’s go for office farming!
The Japanese company Pasona group, which specializes in providing advice on personnel selection and management and work organization, offers its own employees, at its headquarters in Tokyo, the opportunity to engage in agricultural work during their break… inside the skyscraper.
The photography is from “harvesting”. It is very likely that without biotechnological advances the nature-friendly company would not easily find species that thrive in indoor conditions on the 25th floor, with soil of 20 points. Anyway, its management is satisfied. “Employees relax as they engage in physical tasks related to nature,” it notes. This seems logical to us. And detox programs emphasize manual labor.
So o.k. Just don’t think (the Pasona group) to put bees too… except only if they are so redesigned (biotechnologically) that they collect nectar from the (organic) lamps…
