Urban agriculture, particularly the cultivation of mushrooms in basement conditions, emerges as a promising solution to address these multifaceted challenges. This article explores the viability and benefits of basement cultivation of Agaricus bisporus mushrooms as a sustainable response to climate change, land scarcity, and food security. The topic is also discussed as a possible example for a sharing economy business model. Within the paper simulated basement and ground level room space conditions are created and conditions are compared to each other with economic calculations.
