The document discusses the problem of agricultural land depletion due to overpopulation, which leads to loss of animal habitats and increased carbon dioxide emissions. It proposes vertical farming and hydroponics as solutions, noting they would require widespread participation and funding but could result in less environmental damage over time by growing food in urban areas with less land use. The best solution is described as local organic vegetable farming using solar power.

1. Agricultural Land Use By Siana

2. The Problem The main cause of agricultural land depletion is overpopulation.

3. The Chain Reaction More food needed… More people… More land getting cut down… More places getting affected by Co2…

4. Effects Animal habitat loss because of depletion of land.

5. Future Effects Crazy CO2 emissions, hot world, hungry people, dead animals, etc.

6. Places Already Affected Brazil, Argentina, and lots of places in Africa.

7. Meet the Experts UN (United Nations), Vertical Farming Project, World Health Organization, and Urban Farming Organization. UN (United Nations) Logo

8. THE SOLUTION

9. Vertical Farming

10. Hydroponics System Can grow on your rooftops and on top of buildings.

11. Who needs to be involved? Each and everyone.

12. Materials Needed? All of these materials are needed to make a hydroponics system. Public, too.

13. Successful Solution? Less hungry people Less habitats destroyed More animals alive Less CO2 emissions More vertical farms More rooftop farms

14. Best Solution? Veggies close to you (less carbon emissions), able to grow healthy, organic vegetables, good for the earth (if you use solar power), gives poor people jobs so that they can feed themselves.

15. Time Needed Depends, if people approve these ideas fast, it will take less time. We also need building time.

16. Money Needed For single hydroponics system: about 2,000 baht For vertical farming building: millions of baht For family garden (no hydroponics): 500 baht (maximum)

17. Sustainable? Yes! Everything mentioned is sustainable in their own way!

18. What can YOU do? Buy hydroponics system (or make it), start a personal garden, spread the news, etc. -Plant a garden -Say yes to hydroponics -Spread the news of what is happening to the world and what will happen if we don’t stop this from happening

19. It’s up to us…
