At Eco-Bench our aim is to maximise the efficiency of urban greening techniques, by working with ecologists to determine the most effective types of plants to be employed as Carbon sponges.
We want to absorb all the harmful gases there are, and we think that this is not an overly-ambitious goal. With the right plants, we can absorb as much Co2 in space of 1m2 as trees do with over 200m2!
Our ambition, though founded in outdoor seating areas, is not limited to creating benches. As we expand, we hope to incorporate carbon-sucking plants into all types of practical structures (tables, walls, rooves) and disused areas (empty phone boxes, derelict buildings).
Please join us in our mission to combat climate change using natural solutions.
