Having been raised in So Cal during the 50's and 60's when our air pollution was some of the worst in the world, I can really sympathize with the guy from Shanghai. PS: I also visited Shanghai as an engineer on a merchant ship in 2000 so I can confirm that the air there is putrid.
That is so interesting! QUESTIONS: We live in a hot, arid climate. Could it make us cooler and more comfortable if we included moss in our backyard and even in containers indoors? Would it clean our indoor air even if we didn’t force air through it? Would it create a moisture/mold problem indoors?
Good questions, but from what I understand regarding indoors, moss is extremely moist, also who knows what negative microbiology could do indoors. Also, the chemicals from product in houses could have a negative effect on the moss.
@@valevisa8429 True, it would do as a good mix in for a more natural yard though. I'm sure theres another grass replacement that doesn't require mowing but I can't remember what it's called right now for the life of me.
This is great and all... But moss requires more water than grass does. Now imagine people in Texas, Arizona, or other arid areas trying to make this magic happen.
Hmm good one. This is probably best applied in big cities with a tropical climate, like the air polluted cities in China 🤔 And there probably are other solutions in dry climates👍🏻
@@LotusVibrations Beijing lies close to the 5th biggest desert in the world. Beijing is sometimes covered in sand dust from sandstorms. The spring of 2021 saw the biggest Beijing sandstorm in about a decade. It might work in Shanghai, but China has already messed up the Yangtze river with its many dams. And in much of China, the pollution doesn't come from the cities, they come from industrial towns far away from the cities, places covered in soot and coal, where they don't even have running water. They get water from hand-cranked wells.
My question; Is the energy and its related emissions from creating, installing, and running a moss wall less than what the moss wall can extract from the air?
Probably not really. Moss is a very slow-growing plant, so I really doubt it's absorbing much. And that's assuming these moss panels are never retired, because if they ever are, a lot of the CO2 it did absorb is going to be re-released when it decays It really just looks like a smog particle filter that needs water and sunlight to me. Honestly just plant trees, no need to overcomplicate it. This just reeks of a way to make a buck and pat yourself on the back without actually doing anything meaningful to me
@@starrysock I think I agree, say we scale this up to cover motorways like he suggested - who's paying to maintain and replace the moss over time - probably the tax payer. Imagine the roadwork issues it would cause, workers would constantly need to be closing lanes to replace it, and lanes would have to be slowed down constantly, creating more pollution from the congestion it would cause, and the inefficient rpms it would cause engines to run at. Now, I think it could be used in urban areas if a business wanted to spice up their environment, or say, in schools found near roads, but in general, yeah, a good way to make a quick buck. Still though, I'd be happy to work for them if I could, it feels like it helps more with the gloomy environments found in urban areas.
@@Leon_George yeah, it's definitely good decoration even if nothing else lol. But idk, for actual effect I think you'd get more out of just planting trees or native plants, even if it's just a small planter on the sidewalk. No fancy airflow systems needed
Hi, thanks for your interest. In the development and production process, we make sure to keep delivery routes short and the use of materials as efficient as possible. That's why we work primarily with German electronics partners such as ifm and KD Electronics Systems. For the structure and cladding of e.g. the CityTree, we use FSCE-certified wood from the EU in the form of spruce and larch. In addition, we largely dispense with packaging for our products and rely on recycled or recyclable materials. We also calculate the emissions that occur during the transport of our products and offset them with audited Gold Standard projects. In this way, we ensure that we are emission-neutral in production and transport. In addition, we plant 50 trees with every new installation of one of our moss filters. Because we are sure: Nature knows best. That's why we help natural solutions in urban areas. This is our approach: We combine biology with technology to activate and promote natural effects.
Very cool, nature is a huge part of the uk and London with it being one of the greenest cities in the world, so I would love to see this implemented in London
Having to find ways to fix things that we have broken - taking cars off the road and cleaning up polluting industries would go a long way to better cleaner air much quicker.
Now imagine if you took hillsides and lined it with rows and rows, much like a grape farm or something. Maybe even tier it off, make it puddle and irrigate it towards where the water is needed
They should use it in large filters on top of all those nasty smoke stacks spewing poison into the air... Love this idea, would make visiting cities far more interesting and hay 😋 everyone will be able to breath.🐱👍
Would have loved to know more about how pollution buildup over time affects the moss and if the mats need to be changed out periodically. If so, where is the polluted moss sent and are there any specialty waste treatment requirements?
I hope this tech comes near where I live. I live along side a busy freeway, a busy road, and across the freeway is the Sination district. Oh and Phillips 66 refinery is also a view.

what if we grow dozens upon dozens of species of moss, then let artists design "moss paintings" or moss wall-art, moss carpets etc. then mass produce it to make it widely available. hold design competitions for pros and workshops for normal people as an activity. cover the cities in biodiverse moss, no monocultures
4:31, and this cooler air isn't because of the VENTILATION SYSTEM ITSELF speeding up air and making it cooler 😑? And won't the energy used in the ventilation system require more energy from the power plant which uses more fossil fuels? And aren't cars and power generation are the two biggest producers of air pollution, so won't the money be better spent on trying to get rid of those than wasting it trying to complicatedly solve it this way? And yes I'm a very cynical person, but I can't not see this, sorry 🤷🏻
Btw, the solution is for real humans living in real cities - it seems to me that it will improve people's lives in a short time frame and it's a hopeful vision, which is valuable in itself in these doomsday times we seem to be living in.
But how does the moss store the pollution/CO2. Trees turn it into bark and grow. When moss turn it into "more moss", where does the excess moss go??? They are in a fixed enclosure.
Not sure if any of science mentioned was clear surely an electric motor or wind generator driving a large filters would remove a lot with plants mopping up the rest moss seems to like environment which it likes IE it won't grow every where.maybe we can use moss as a filter media live or dead?

Moss eats pollution surely not. moss may live on some dirt or nitrates etc in the air I suppose it depends on what you call a pollutant not clear here. Moss cools the atmosphere ? any wet surface cools the atmosphere. Moss looks nice yes I agree .
We need as much wind and solar energy and electric cars. That will help but industry will still need fossil fuels for decades. We need filters to clean industry Before it reaches the air.

Whats polluting cities 2022? Food mopeds, leave-blowers, trucks/buses and other machinery. (Not personal cars as they have extremely sofisticated cathalysts - somehow people ”forget” this simple fact). And this is your solution? Better tell people shopping their own food insted, I say. Walk to the shop yourself
huff your car's exhaust and see how non-polluting your personal car's exhaust is. Catalytic converters have come along way, but they absolutely don't make cars a negligible source of pollution.
@@starrysock I can breath it no prob and so can you, its mostly H2O & CO2, which also comes out of our own lungs. I’m a car developing engineer & technician and know exactly what comes out of a modern car. Already in 1992 Saab made a big deal of their exhausts being cleaner than the air (going into the engine) in our most polluted cities. Today one (1) petrol scooter/moped equals 100-120 cars in pollution. We have to realize ”the electrification” is a billion dollar business dream for the car industry and there’s a lot of desinformation going on too. Everybody wants you to buy more, more often.. No matter how much CO2 that creates. The quickest way to cut CO2 emissions is to stop buying new cars, of any type, now.
The only issue with the climate is that with carbon dioxide levels at a fraction of a percent, if it falls any further there is a risk that plants won't be able to photosynthesise and we will all starve. Life on Earth will end. What we need is more CO2.
that takes decades and centuries to lower the %, at the point co2 is in the lowest we can adjust and shift the production of co2 in various ways to pull it back up, or start to take down the co2 takers again to help it rise again
dumbest comment I've read all year. The atmosphere only needs less than 1% co2 because it's a potent greenhouse gas, so a small amount absorbs a lot of heat. If you want the atmosphere to be full of co2 go to Venus where the atmosphere is 95% co2 and so the surface is hot enough to melt lead. Besides, the problem is the complete opposite of what you're saying. In the 200 years of the industrial era co2 levels have risen by 50%. Changes like that in our atmosphere normally happen over millions of years not hundreds.
that is ridiculous. our current atmospheric CO2 level is several times higher than it was before the industrial revolution, and plants did just fine back then. there is not a single plant species on this planet adapted to rely on post-industrialisation CO2 levels.
Fascinating, amazing work by some marvelous people. Wishing good luck and progress to all the researchers on the international team.
