A better incorporation of growing food and plant life into our infrastructure. I think a lot of it probably has to do with space planning and the general persons'lack of any food growing knowledge. It seems to me the best solution to instances like the one in the story is figuring out a way to combine housing and food growth. Maybe roof gardens? Garden squares? Hanging gardens between buildings? I think some options could be thought up by designers smarter than I.
