Review Description

The food we eat today are derived out of non-organic means i.e. they are treated with pesticides, herbicides, hormones, anti-biotics, preservatives and sometimes radiation thus creating severe negative effects on our health including neurotoxicity, disruption of the endocrine system, carcinogenicity and immune system suppression. The alternative organic foods are approximately 40% more expensive than conventional food.

Our programs will emphasize on harnessing all the potential benefits of Organic Roof-top Farming.
With aid from our field experts, we will adopt innovative approaches for integrating roof-top farms with other green building services to reduce or eliminate energy inputs from unsustainable sources and enhance economic and health performance.
We will also incorporate new concepts like intake air cooling, photo-voltaics, air freshening, bio-energy production, moderation of heat loss and gain mechanisms through the building envelope on Organic Roof-top Farming.
