I’ve been pondering this a bit, and reached the conclusion that plans should be formulated to build protected underground agriculture facilities.

Right now in the Netherlands they are building “high rise” facilities of this type, because they are so limited in farmland. What we should develop are the equivalent of underground high rises for plant crops and farm animals.

With artificial heat and lighting, food production would be year around, not limited to seasons.

Except for extreme environments, however, people will still live on the surface, using ultra efficient insulators like Aerogel panels for buildings, to maximize energy efficiency.

Plants, like all living things, need sunlight.
