How walls of moss could help reduce urban air pollution – BBC News
Air pollution poses a major threat to both our health and the health of the climate, killing an estimated 7 million people a year, according to the World Health Organization.
But a company in Germany is developing mats made of moss which can absorb pollution particles, allowing cleaner air to be released.
Green City Solutions combine moss’s natural filtering properties with technology that monitors environmental conditions, like moisture, humidity and temperature.

Tech Now’s Paul Carter finds out how technology powering advanced prosthetics is also helping train humanoid robots.
The Ability Hand is a special piece of prosthetics technology, with two ambitions running through the same piece of hardware.
One is to give somebody their grip back. The other is to take what that person’s hand already knows – and teach it to a machine.

AI can always be controlled, the president of encrypted messaging app Signal has told the BBC.
Meredith Whittaker said fears that AI could become conscious and take over were “not anchored in science and evidence”, warning instead about the dangers of using the technology in military decision-making.
The former Google employee said AI could “supercharge mistakes” and reflected on her role in opposing the company’s involvement in a US military drone surveillance project.
Speaking to the BBC Global Women, Whittaker also questioned who gets to shape the future of AI, criticised the concentration of power in Silicon Valley and explained why Signal would leave a country rather than compromise its users’ privacy.

Developer Moonshot is conducting an internal review after researchers were able to persuade two of its popular Kimi models to tell them how to make biological weapons and carry out assassinations.
Mindgard, which tests the security of AI systems, told the BBC it discovered in July that Kimi K2.6 and K3 Swarm could evade safety limits put in place by developers.
It arose during a process called “jailbreaking”, where researchers use a series of complex instructions to see if AI tools ignore guardrails – which Mindgard said should have stopped Kimi from discussing concerning topics.
Moonshot told the BBC it welcomed third-party input “as a key pillar for building better and safer AI”.

Isn’t fine particle just standing on outer coat of the leave? If it’s at their max capacity how do you know and sure that it is pm 2.5 not pm10? What about frequency you clean the moss

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 .

Blowing warm air over damp moss cools the air down surely not wouldn't that cool down the moss by latent heat of evaporation I don't think moss is the big factor here unless you mean the large surface area of the moss helps evaporation take place.

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?

Suggestion: Track crime if these moss walls are used extensively.
Stats show that unexpectedly and very oddly planting trees reduces. crime.
