In Milwaukee, a 1-acre (0.4 hectare) farm filled with greenhouses, tilapia tanks and poultry pens grossed more than...
Meanwhile, Dickson Despommier, a public-health professor at Columbia University, is pushing a way to get population centers to produce a lot more of the food they consume.

Delivery, if completed, could take days, weeks, months. The project officially launches in August and is part of Isley's work with fellow researcher Paul Smith. The duo's name, appropriately, is boredomresearch...
