with renewables, you could run your own desalination station: and yea, vertical farming is nice but very cheap electricity is required for it to be reliable (even at 50$ per Mwh of solar, VF is yet to be profitable.
electricity should cost a fraction of that for the former to be worthwhile) (electricity would be needed to desalinate water, control the climate within the farm, and provide lighting for crops). People should also give up crypto mining and spare the grid enough energy to dedicate for crop farming. Also bitcoin (in particular) is an ecological disaster.
