Chilling Out In A Greenhouse

By Carl Williams


At one point in time, human society was largely agrarian. Humans grew crops and then ate those crops or used those crops to feed animals who were then eaten. There are still people who do such work, but not for themselves. No, nowadays, people engage in agricultural activities to sell the harvest and make money, money which can then be used to buy foodstuffs at a local supermarket and also to pay for basic things like electricity and running water. But some people do not grow plants for food, some just grow plants, sometimes in a greenhouse.

At no point in its history have human beings ever been pure carnivorous. In fact, the ideal diet is a mixture of plants and animals, although the stomach is perfectly capable of adjusting to fully carnivorous or herbivorous diets. Now, some will actively choose not to eat any vegetables at all and most of people are prepubescent children. Other than food, plants provide an even more essential service to human beings in that they absorb carbon, the very same carbon that is slowly degrading the ozone layer making the whole planet a little hotter every since year. But they take that carbon and release oxygen, a vital component in the air that most living organisms, including people, need to breathe.

Now, getting back to matter of plants as food. Most people should ideally eat at least vegetation in their diet, because vegetables are packed with a lot of nutrients, the kind of nutrients that a human body needs in order to function properly. Having a diet rich in fruits and vegetables can lead to more energy, which can lead to more satisfying workouts, which can lead to improved moods, which can lead to social success.

A glasshouse is a structure made of glass over a steel frame. The glass is not heavily tinted in order to let sunlight in. Now, most people use a glasshouse in order to grow foliage in but also to still be indoors.

The main purpose of one is the grow flora at leisure. Some plant life can attract animal life, having a glass and steel structure protects the foliage from becoming food. The structure can also be used to protect plants from people. Some people take gardening really seriously, having competitions and such. A glasshouse can keep a prized plant safe from interlopers.

Having a place to garden at leisure and in peace can be therapeutic for some people. Finally, food can be grown inside of one. Growing food makes the proprietors more independent of grocery stores and the like.

Glasshouses can also make the monetary worth of a property go up. Having a separate structure on the grounds can give even the most humble of manors more of that upper class feel. Now, a lot of edible flora can also be grown in one, making property owners more self sustaining.

The world is becoming increasingly unstable environmentally speaking. The population is growing fast. Now, those people are going to need space to live in and food to eat. But the space used for residential building is not going to be used for agriculture. As such, it will become increasingly important to create glasshouses for vertical farming, using vertical space instead horizontal space, to grow crops.

As long as there are people on the planet, those people are going to have needs. Those needs have to be met to insure continued survival. Resources will have to cultivated and distributed.
