You do not need soil to grow plants.  Hydroponics have come a long way.  Makes vertical farming much easier.  You also do not need Sun light.  The UV needed to support plant life can be created with lamps.  You need solar panels to supply the electricity.  You need a good source of CO2 in the farm and be able to release the O2 buildup.

All these things have been worked out already.  The only thing holding it back is the initial cost of building it.
I remember watching the documentary bellow , this company is growing large quantities of green leafy vegetables in warehouses located in New York without soil and less water; same trick vertical farming UV light. Perhaps a method perfected by forbidden  plants growers; set ups like this were found quite often in Toronto, one was in my apartment building , hydro company reported suspicious high electricity consumption and popped electric fuses .  https://youtu.be/-_tvJtUHnmU

I still believe that we have not produced the best energy source and it's still and always will be transportation that holds society back.

  Sure not, i believe even if a genius comes up with a bright idea, gets silenced by energy producers and lazy governments thieving on heavy taxes.

Pigs eat vegetables and turn them into bacon, so therefore bacon is a vegetable

I'd rather die from eating too much bacon, than not enough brussel sprouts.

You can have both!

Brussels sprouts, pan roasted with bacon (and thus bacon grease) and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar is yummy, especially as a side dish for a great steak.
