Longchuen, Chengdu, Sichuan Province: I was very surprised to see agriculture happening on large blocks on the outskirts of Chengdu, a city of 13 million.

On the other hand, this is a city that suffers grey skies most days of the year due to the smog the city creates… If the water’s not safe for human consumption, is it safe for human food production?
