While you may think of New York City as a town of exhaust spewing traffic, bright lights and garbage strewn sidewalks, it is actually among the greenest cities in the country.
Gotham Greens grows leafy greens at its growing network of greenhouses. The company plans to use this funding to expand its offerings and footprint around the United States.
New Yorkers are already a pretty green bunch. We use a lot of mass transit, live in tiny, energy efficient apartments and the majority of us don’t own cars — even those supposedly Earth-saving ones from Tesla. But, certainly we could all do a little better. We thought we’d channel some Portlandia, and see if we could come up with some ways we could support the local tech economy and be a little greener in the process.
