How urban farms can make cities more livable and help feed America If you’ve spent any time on a roof, you know that it’s not especially pleasant up there — blazing in the summer, frigid and windy in the winter.

And because that hardware provides shade, evaporation is reduced, resulting in big water savings. Plus, all t...

A prolific scholar, theologian, and ascetic, Origen was one of the most influential thinkers in the development of early Christian theology.
