One possible pathway involves using "composite biochemicals" to develop new plants that can be easily broken down and which can be planted in poor quality soil, able to survive on only sunlight and a small amount of water so that they will not affect food supply.
其中可能的途徑之一，是利用「合成生物學」發展出能輕易分解為糖分的新植物，並能種植在貧瘠的土地上，只需借助陽光及少量的水就能生存，不會影響糧食供應。
