Treepods

Messrs Mario Caceres and Cristian Canonico bestow upon Boston, MA and the world the Treepods:  Biomimic constructs that scrub pollutants from the air; making for a healthier, happier community.

Bear in mind that the "pollutant" in question is carbon dioxide, which is actually a perfectly safe gas that is part of the natural respiration cycle, but the High Priests of Blessed Gaia have declared CO2 anathema, so who are we mere mortals to question their divine wisdom?  I imagine that we are also not allowed to question their arithmetic as to how this is in any way superior to those other things... The whatsits... Trees, that's  it.  I understand that they have something of the same function as well without looking like a 1970s table lamp.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
