Mordillo versus the city of Zhuzhou

Last week I saw this picture in the newspaper. It's in the city of Zhuzhou in China and it made me think immediately at some of Mordillo's cartoons with skyscraper and roof top scenery.


I looked in this three Mordillo books, and I found


some nice cartoons:

Mordillo, many many  years ago
Burj al Arab, some time ago...
Mordillo, many many  years ago

Burj al Arab, some time ago...

The conclusion is that the ideas in the cartoons of Mordillo weren't as crazy as we might think. What to think about urban farming? On the internet I've found many pictures of agriculture on roof tops and rooftop farms.
Yes,  Mordillo was predicting the future in his cartoons.
