				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><strong>1. Problem Statement</strong></div>
<div>By 2030 world´s population will have increased from 7 Billion to 9 Billion people</div>
<div>To feed our species we will need to produce more food with less resources</div>
<div>60% of that population will live in cities</div>
<div><strong>2. Vision</strong></div>
<div>Our Goal is to reconnect people and cities with food</div>
<div>Our Strategy is to recycle waste to produce sustainable food and energy</div>
<div>Our Vision is to create an urbanfarming model ecosystem that works like an engine loop</div>
<div><span id="more-432"></span></div>
<div><strong>3. Tools </strong></div>
<div>We will focus on abandoned urban sites next to key public buildings in our site (schools, libraries, sports centers&#8230;)</div>
<div>We will deploy recycled cargo containers that will work like energy transformers to retrofit those buildings and sites</div>
<div>The transformers will convert organic waste and greywaters from the buildings into fertilizer and clean water for the urban farms.</div>
<div>The outputs of each retrofitted cell: food, energy and knowledge, will be shared in a community network, a smart grid where everyone is a provider and a user.</div>
<div>Each cell composed by Building + Transformers + Site will become an example for other projects in Barcelona and around the world.</div>
<div>Our vision is to create a strategy and tools role model that can work anywhere in the world, and provide people with the power they need to live and keep evolving.</div>
