LIQUID3

Planting trees in forests is a commonly used strategy for companies


and governments to lower CO2 in the air. But
what can we do in dense cities where there’s
barely any space for a bush? After all, these
urban sites are where the pollution is
concentrated. Fortunately, a group of Serbian
scientists has come up with an ingenious
solution: a liquid tree.

To make a liquid tree according to Dr.


Ivan Spasojevic, we just need a 160-gallon
clear tank filled with water and microalgae.
While the tank behaves the same as a tree,
converting carbon dioxide to oxygen, its
overall efficiency is much higher. One single
liquid tree can match the job
of two fifteen-year-old trees.

The microalgae in the liquid tree is a type of organism that


lives off of water, sun, and carbon dioxide. Microalgae are super tiny
and when they breathe air pollution goes in and fresh air goes out. The
more the liquid tree cleans the air around it the more it turns light
green to green. A liquid tree is called liquid3 because it has 3 ways to
be used. It can be sat on, it cleans the air and you can also charge your
phone. Right now it is only in i Belgrade, Serbia, and later on, it will be
transported in Paris, New Delhi and New York.

According to the IHME Global Health Data Exchange Tool,


“Pollution kills three times as many people a year as HIV/AIDS,
tuberculosis, and malaria combined”.
