Very cool photo...Dubai needs a ton of power and being able to use the land under the power lines is important.

Growing crops will benefit the city and make good use of the land. Very good thinking here. Good to know some governments are thinking of the best interests for their people.

Thanks for sharing!

Yeah there are precious few governments that care about their people and making good choices with limited resources. We seem to be going backwards while some countries like Dubai, are looking to the future and making it happen. Not just talking the talk.
Thanks for your comment @memesteemit

No problem. I enjoy good content, especially stuff that I can learn from. Appreciate the reply.

Now that's what you call inventive thinking! Nice capture there sir, like metal giants :-)

They certainly think out of the box and are quick to adopt new ideas.

We could do with more of that kind of creativity here in the UK :-)

You said it Westley, we have so many things we could do here but the government actually gets on the way of progress.

Doesn't it just...

But is it a good idea to grow underneath some food. I mean would the crops be damaged on some way ?

There are some known issues and some unknowns. That's why they won't permit people to live under these pylons. Just to be safe. Crops would be fine I assume? They would need do tests to be sure.

That is excellent thinking. I wish they would have done that here.

There is a smaller one across the street from my house. We never noticed it until we moved in.

The Dubai leadership have really thought about these issues and instead of just talking about change. They just get on with it.

The Government of Dubai really cares about its people. They have an excellent implementation of their plans and the people benefits from it.

The photo in fantastic and the landscape is amazing. You really got that eye of a photographer @molometer. Cheers!

Thank you @garokee Dubai is leading the way and is trying to change everything so that the country can stand tall in the world. It faces opposition but it is pressing ahead with all kinds of reforms.

Dubai is surely going higher in technology. Gone are the days when it was just a dessert area. Now, it can easily compete with advanced country. Thanks for the info.

Dubai is way out in front of most developed economies and they have many projects that will push them even further into the future.

dubai government is very wise there who want to care about the health of his people this seems to be a giant electric

It seems that they have identified an undervalued resource. (The land underneath these electricity pylons) Now it will become more valuable as crops are grown.

yes friends @molometer it's a very genius idea.

It is a very clever use of the land for sure.

Thank you Jerry for your support.

Very forward thinking of them!

It had to happen. They cannot stand still now that the oil is gone.

its a cool entry though..thanks so much

Thank you for leaving a comment.

hahahh, your comments do not connect with the story in the post above. @bram17.

Do you know what they will grow?

I think they are looking at all possibilities. They first need to put in irrigation and then I assume they would choose what crops would do well there. They have more or less constant sunshine so anything it possible. Probably hydroponic based greenhouses. tip!

Great salads to come:)
