The Interstate Traveler Company's Hydroponic Highway IntegrationMaking our Highways Bloom with AbundanceCertainly their can be no greater concern for the future of our advanced
civilization and great growing numbers in the global population other than the
concern for food and water.
The Hydroponic Traveler can harness the sun's rays to process ocean brine and isolate the mineral content of the ocean brine to construct specialized solutions of water for Hydroponic assisted agricultural growth within Highway rights of way or otherwise along other rights of way were the Interstate Traveler Hydrogen Super Highway may be installed. The full extension of this concept can be seen in the Grand Arbor System combined with the Space Shield, the Mississippi Highlands Project to help counteract the effects of global warming.
The Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations and the Free World will be served well by this system which will collect water and waste and process that waste to make fortified fertilizers to build soils and literally collect light from the Sun and shine it down on growing plants half a world away to bear fruit for the hungry masses. If not just to enable a surplus to buffer our needs when natural disasters destroy our crops. Carbon OffsetHydrocarbons such as gasoline form a bond of 8 carbons to every 18 atoms of
hydrogen, or C8H18. When the hydrocarbon is oxidized, the
hydrogen is burned away to create H2O and CO2 Carbon SequestrationThe following mathematical relationships are widely accepted by Government and Academic authorities:
Hydroponic Highway Carbon Sequestration / MileMixed Agriculture Sequestration = 24.25 Tons per Mile per YearConsidering a garden of mixed agriculture 80 feet wide per lineal mile of rail we can consider a total square foot of 422,400 sq-ft/mile, or 9.7 acres / mile. Therefore a typical mile of mixed agriculture Hydroponic Highway could absorb (9.7*2.5=24.25) tons of carbon per year. A system of 1,000 miles will therefore sequester 24,250 tons of carbon per year. Since a typical automobile will emit about 3 tons of carbon per year there is an offset of 8,083 automobiles for every 1,000 miles or about 8 automobiles per mile. This offset should also account for the increased capacity of the highway by as much as 300 Passengers per mile using the right of way that is carbon free. If each of the 300 Passengers represented as many as 200 automobiles we can consider an additional carbon offset of 600 tons /mile/ year These figures extrapolated to the Eisenhower Interstate Network of 54,000 miles we see a total potential of @ 24.25 tons/mile/year = 1,309,500 Tons/Year. The addition of 600 tons / mile / year is 32,400,000 tons/ year avoided added to the 1.3 million tons agricultural sequestration for a grand total of 33,709,500 tons / year. http://unesdoc.unesco.org/images/0014/001444/144409E.pdf

We can all accept the fact that not all of our future generations can remain
living on the family farm. Over the next 100 years, our cities will grow
exponentially as the existing 6 Billion people on Earth becomes 9 Billion or
more. There is no greater concern for tomorrow than the suffering of
millions of people TODAY. According to UN and other publications in
2007 there were estimated more than 800,000 souls in the greater Sudanese region
of Africa that have been chased from their homes by famine and drought or war
lords competing for dwindling resources.
