Bangalore Microgreens addresses the climate crisis by promoting sustainable urban hydroponics. Our project reduces greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, optimizes urban space, and strengthens food resilience. By growing food locally on urban rooftops, we cut down on transportation emissions and reduce dependency on vulnerable supply chains.

Key Contributions:
Climate Education: We provide open-source knowledge and DIY guides, empowering more people to set up hydroponic systems, fostering widespread climate literacy and action.

Climate Resilience: Local food production helps communities withstand climate shocks and reduces emissions from commercial monocrops. For example, if 100 urban farmers grow lettuce on 10 sq meters each, they could collectively reduce 3,200 kg of CO2e annually.

Our goal is to start with this target and, with more funding, scale the community, expand our knowledge base, and share diverse DIY kits made from everyday materials. Through education and practical action, we're building a sustainable and resilient urban future.
