Fresh, locally, organic produce grown in Brooklyn, New York? YES! Meet Ben Flanner. Ben operates the world's largest rooftop farm in a navy yard and uses Soil Reef biochar to increase his soil's fertility. Biochar is made by heating organic matter to high temperatures in the absence of oxygen, leaving behind a porous charcoal that can increase the soil's ability to hold water and nutrients. It was exciting to dig up this old footage and share it! Subscribe for more biochar stories! www.facebook.com/biocharbob www.soilreef.com

I'm sorry but I had to give you guys a dislike for the title. Change the word World to America, or even Brooklyn....
Russia has had this idea down for decades.
