Hey guys, just sharing a video that I really enjoyed. Sam Bentley does these every month and I think it’s really important stuff. There’s usually a lot in there about ecology repair and climate etc, but the moss walls really caught my eye this month - what’s more solarpunk than literally growing moss on our buildings?
Enjoy!
sciencedirect is always tor-hostile, but your 1st link is good. Thanks for posting it because Youtube is dead to me.
I have always wanted a green facade, either moss or covered in vines. I like the moss idea the most in terms of aesthetics and comfort, but I have concerns. Humidity and dampness is a serious problem where I am. I would not want having moss on the exterior to come with mold on the inside. The walls really need to breath and it’s unclear if this moss-supporting concrete can handle that.
