This Should Have Been an April Fools Joke @inhabitat

Are you kidding me!?!?!? A plant inside a box with a fan to filter air? The plant will filter air WITHOUT the box and cost less. This is a perfect example of the "green" industry wasting energy manufacturing things that you do not need.

I always remember this thing from my engineering classes when you design new products. Its called a prior art search to research patents and previous designs so you don't copy old ideas. It served to prevent wasted energy and caution you against potential patent infringements. If you could work around the prior art and make it better then you should. If you can't, you are already going to fail.

This is a case where a patent search would not turn up any prior art because the U.S. Patent Office does not issue patents to Nature for her design!
